Hoop it up: Hoop house build day April 11th!

Guys. Get Excited! This Saturday April 11th MKG is hosting a workday in which the long awaited hoop house will be built! Planning for this hoop house began in the Fall semester, with the leadership team including Audrey Baker, Vanessa Owens, and Riley Hazard. They worked really hard to get this project going, which has been in the works for a long time. It is now possible because the project was selected to receive a GIFT grant, which covers all the funds for the project. Shout out to the leadership for getting this going!What is a hoop house anyway?  It is essentially a greenhouse constructed out of plastic. There are many advantages to hoop houses, such as isolation from pests and the creation of a warmer environment which allows for planting year round. Planting for the MKG hoop house will begin this summer with cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and more! We're really excited to get this project going and we need your help!The event is divided into two work shifts, one from 9: 30 am- 12:30 pm and the other from 12:30 pm- 4:00 pm. There will be FREE LUNCH from Take it Away, Feast, Boars Head, and other places from 12-1 pm!! So come out to Morven for a fun build day that consists of food, friendship, and hooping it up!SIGN UP HERE:https://docs.google.com/a/virginia.edu/spreadsheets/d/1QJKPdxfmv-Q84P-Ij2O5mpwQdWWJzCCetUUsTXpzGCk/edit#gid=0
