GardenShare is looking to have a responsible return to an in-person outdoor event and we are closely monitoring COVID data and guidance. Please note that safety guidelines at the event may include a requirement to wear masks while congregating outside. We are also encouraging virtual 5K participation for anyone who would prefer to participate that way! Should we determine that a fully virtual 5K is in the best interest of our participants, we will be sure to update you.

This event is brought to you […]
