It is the THIRD year at the Stone Soup Community Garden – to get ready for the 2017 season, we need ALL VOLUNTEERS to come help us till soil, build beds. clean up, plant plants, sow seeds & eat hot dogs!
Bring your own gloves (& a shovel, if you have one) – we’ll provide all the other tools as well as lunch & drinks.
The Stone Soup Community Garden provides locally grown vegetables for many of Bread Line’s projects: our chef at the Stone Soup Cafe uses the vegetables to bolster our morning meals with hearty greens; the chef for our Summer Food Service Program uses the vegetables to create the healthy and hearty meals that feed school children who receive free or reduced price lunches during the school year; & this season we plan on providing fresh garden salads to the elders in downtown assisted living apartments.
Last year we grew 2,000lbs of vegetables & this year we want to harvest 2,500lbs – please help us make this possible!
