This course brings OLLI and UConn students together to care for the OLLI garden while building connection and intergenerational solidarity. Through hands-on gardening and collaboration with local partners, participants will learn about community engagement and sustainability. Guest speakers and workshops will explore how gardens strengthen community ties and support well-being. The course will be taught on campus, with a couple of classes held at the OLLI garden in Fulton Park, Waterbury.
Please Note: This free course is funded by the Environmental and Social Sustainability Grant funded through the UConn Office of Sustainability. While free, space is limited. Also, students in this course may attend all sessions, but are free to attend any number of session they'd like.
