PLANT A ROW FOR THE HUNGRY - CAMPAIGN KICK OFF!
SUGAR HOLLOW FARM & THE PAR Network of gardeners ARE PLEDGING TO DONATE 500 lbs OF FRESH PRODUCE FROM OUR GARDENS THIS YEAR TO THE GARDNER CAC FOOD PANTRY.
We are joining the Gardeners Writers Association to create a network of gardeners that will pledge to grow a row of their garden specifically to provide fresh produce for the local food pantry . Sugar Hollow Farm will act as the liaison between the CAC in Gardner and the network. As a network we will pledge 500 lbs of fresh produce for the CAC.
On opening day we are inviting everyone to come and pledge to become part of the network. When you sign up you will receive a packet of seeds and a row marker. When your veggies start coming in you pledge to bring that food to the pantry (getting a donor receipt to turn in) or bring the produce to the farm and it will be brought down.
