How Can You Help?

As the The Garden Program grows, funding is needed to operate.  The Garden needs volunteers for field cleaning as well as new farmers and shed owners who wish to donate or supplies to build a shed and greenhouse.


How is the Food Bank funded?

Donations are received from local businesses, churches, foundations, corporations, government, civic groups and individuals. When you make a donation toward The Garden operating funds, your gift is used to acquire and distribute donated food, including the operation of our greenhouse (once built); utilities to run our huge freezers and coolers; and fuel and maintenance for our trucks to deliver our harvest. A donation to the The Garden will ensure the stability of the Meals on Wheels and Food Bank programs for years to come, at a time when the economy might not be strong and when the need for services is more in demand than ever before.
