The Town of Barrington is establishing a Demonstration Resilience Garden in Town Center, filled with native pollinator plants. We have scheduled Planting Days on Wednesday, Sept. 18, and Thursday, Sept. 19! We are seeking at least six volunteers for each two-hour shift. 

All volunteers who plan to participate in the garden on an ongoing basis must register as a volunteer for the Town Garden, and sign the Town’s release form. Registration and release forms also will be available on site during Planting Day, but we ask that you register for your shift in advance using one of the links below. If one shift is filled, please choose another shift, so that we can keep a steady flow of volunteers throughout the day. Thank you for your help!
