DALLASITES101 SERVE & SOCIAL AT BONTON FARMS
Help us celebrate Earth Day on Saturday, 4/22 from 1-3pm, at our Serve & Social event at the Bonton Farms Extension Farm, presented by Realtor Jolie Barrios of Douglas Elliman! Check-in is at 1pm then the Bonton Farms team will walk us through all of the fun activities, such as gardening, harvesting and tending to the animals, from goats and donkeys to pigs and chickens.
We’ll have supplies on hand but you’re also encouraged to bring your own gloves if you prefer! This is an outdoor, hands-on event, so please wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. After volunteering, we’ll have ice-cold drinks from The Standard Ranch Water and Topo Chico plus some free time to socialize with other servant-hearted locals!
