Last Friday, The Complex team volunteered with Raleigh City Farm – a downtown urban garden! Staff from Raleigh Convention Center, Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts, and Red Hat Amphitheater spent their morning braving the heat to pull weeds, lay mulch, and do our part to help contribute to the farm’s goal “to make our community more food secure.” We also enjoyed a lovely tour and a beautiful surprise (last picture) to take home! Thank you, Raleigh City Farm, for having us! #DigWhereYouLive #UrbanFarm #UrbanGardening #Sustainability #SustainabilityMatters #GreenCities #DowntownRaleigh #Raleigh
