ABOUT US

In Spring 2013, 26 raised beds were created by the United Methodist Men and Hearts and Hammers groups, an old well on the property was re-established and 64 cubic yards of topsoil have filled the new beds. Boy Scouts have made the garden the recipient of their Eagle Projects; building fencing to keep out the neighborhood deer, a shade shelter, and compost bins. Other volunteers have built a picnic table and patio and done so many other things to make this garden happen.  In 2014, we added 8 more beds for a total of 34 and each year we donate about 6000 pounds of fresh vegetables to the hungry. Come and see what is growing!
