Calling all city dwellers! You may no longer have a garden to tend, but come get your hands dirty and meet your neighbors as we beautify part of the hike and bike trail near the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge. DANA adopted a garden on Lady Bird Lake (Cesar Chavez side of Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge). It’s a busy spot on the trail and will be enjoyed by all that pass by.

Check out these pics from our DANA Garden day from a couple years back!

If you are interested in volunteering, please just email info@downtownaustin.org to let us know and so we can send you additional information if necessary.
