This is it - the final "Extra Row" of the gardening season. Thank you to all the gardeners who have been donating from their gardens. Do you have extra produce to share? Or has a crop or two not done so well for you? Come on down to the General Store with or without your extra veggies and say goodbye to summer and chat with the regulars over coffee and breakfast. Jess also has some fun activities queued up for foliage weekend.
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.
Also, if you are inclined to throw a few bucks in the jar, all donations 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
Happy Fall! We look forward to seeing you Saturday AND next summer.
