UP Vets Served – Take Home a Garden

Take Home a Garden

Join fellow veterans for an accessible “lunch and learn” experience featuring a shared meal and hands-on gardening workshop.

Enjoy a meal from Up North Lodge, followed by a beginner-friendly gardening session led by Steve Finley, director of Gwinn Food System, covering soil basics, planting, plant care, and an introduction to larger-scale gardening. All materials are provided, and participants will take home plants they sow.

This event is part of UP Vets Served, a free, accessible recreation program for Upper Peninsula veterans and their immediate families. All programming and meals are made possible through generous donations to SAIL’s 1-in-4 campaign.
