Summer heat and rains are helping push those cucumbers, summer squash, zucchinis, onions and garlic. Pickles, anyone? "Extra Row" is for everyone to share!
Renovations on the future General Store will begin later this summer. For now, we'll gather weekly (except 3rd Sat of each month - Woodbury/Calais Food Shelf) on the front porch to share extra veggies, herbs and flowers from our gardens with those who may need a little help with their food budget and/or who may not have a garden. All are welcome!
Here are the details: Bring your washed and trimmed garden produce Saturday between 9 – 11 (the earlier the better). We'll have a couple coolers but if you can put it in cardboard boxes or plastic bags, that'd be fine. The goal is to have all donations given away by 11 so that nothing ends up going in the compost pile.
If you would like to bake treats to contribute, please make and wrap individual servings to help everyone stay healthy.
"Extra Row," hosted by the East Calais Community Trust, is an informal weekly sharing of our gardens' bounty with our neighbors.
If you are unable to bring your extra produce but want to contribute, please ask a neighbor or friend to deliver it to the store.
Feel free to email me with questions or suggestions. We look forward to seeing you!
