Gardeners are a busy lot, but most set aside time to help reinforce the mission of “community.”
BED BUILD
On Friday, April 12, from 9 am until an hour later, the group gathered, assembled, and placed a garden bed to replace Nancy Hanson’s / Lisa Mitchell’s standing but bedraggled bed.
On Friday, April 12, from 9 am until an hour later, the group gathered, assembled, and placed a garden bed to replace Nancy Hanson’s / Lisa Mitchell’s standing but bedraggled bed.The hour-long feat was made easier by Norm Hodge’s removing thebed’s soil, demolishing the bed, and hauing it away. Further easing the task was Joe Hand’s ordering and precutting all the pieces of lumber to be assembled.
In less than an hour, Vince McVeigh, Dan Wilcox, Jim Alex, Joe Hand, Denise Feiber, Tom Deven, and Mandy Offerle finished the deed.
PANTRY PRODUCE
On Wednesday April 10, Vince McVeigh harvested greens from multiple garden beds adnd delivered them to a thankful group of volunteer at the Cedar Key Food Pantry for distribution.
As we hope you know, the food Pantry serves over 100 local families that are food challenged each week. Obtaining fresh produce weekly for distribution is a constant challenge, so the Garaden’s donation is greatly appreciated.
