The mix of sun, heat and rains have been exceptionally good for our garden. I hope yours is doing as well. Do you have extra produce to share? Or has a crop or two not done so well for you? Let's get together!
We gather weekly through the summer (except 3rd Sat of each month - Woodbury/Calais Food Shelf) on the front steps of the General Store. Our mission is 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 this 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.
New this year! - grab a coffee, breakfast sandwich and/or pastry in the store while you're visiting.
Also, if you are inclined to throw a few bucks in the jar, all donations this summer benefit Community Harvest of Central Vermont - a fantastic, very effective group of volunteers who glean farms to provide healthy food for food shelves and kitchens in our region. https://www.communityharvestvt.org
If you are unable to bring your extra produce but want to contribute, please ask a neighbor or friend to deliver it. Feel free to email me with questions or suggestions.
Happy gardening! We look forward to seeing you.
