Growing Community through Gardens that Give
Volunteer gardeners use their gardening skills to raise fresh, nutritious produce year round to donate to the Metrocrest Social Services Food Pantry. In 2009, 14,432 pounds of fresh produce was donated to Metrocrest Social Services food pantry and over 6600 volunteer hours were documented to grow and harvest the produce.
Gardeners learn about growing fruits and vegetables organically cultivate their plots, and work together on community chores. You don't need to be an expert, just have an interest in organic vegetable gardening.
There are many ways to contribute; you can adopt a plot and become a gardener; you can volunteer and help us harvest on Saturday mornings; and/or you can be a supporter by making a donation to the garden
