MSU Center for Community Engaged Learning

This week, we're spotlighting UN Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities & Communities! Through this goal, we support efforts to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. Learn more about the UN Sustainable Development Goals at sdgs.un.org.

Promoting sustainable programs and practices in our community can take many forms! Here are a few ways you can get involved this summer:

🍎 South Lansing Farmers Market has shifts available on Thursdays in the afternoon and evening! Help with setup and teardown, greet visitors, support small business vendors, and process food benefits for shoppers who need them. In addition, a virtual volunteer is needed to promote the market!

🍏 Meridian Township Farmers Market also needs helpers at their market booth to help visitors! Shifts are available Wednesdays in the afternoon and evening.

🥕 The South Lansing Urban Gardens need volunteers to help grow produce for neighbors! Shifts are available Thursday mornings to help with seed starting, watering, transplanting, weeding, and harvesting.

🌳 The City of East Lansing Environmental Stewardship Program is hosting their next workday at White Park this Sunday, June 14th, 10SM-12PM! Work with a team to pull invasive weeds and keep our parks healthy.
