Community Garden

Jennifer Makowski

Our community garden is located just off the south parking lot. The produce that we pick from the garden supplies food for hungry people in the area. The volunteers fertilize, plant, weed, water, pick the vegetables, and clean up the garden for the season. The garden is a ministry of Good Shepherd in order to share the bounty God provides us with those who are in need. It is also an educational ministry for the preschool children and for the congregation that we might see how our food is grown and participate in that process. The use of straw-bales for planting and compost has been a great success so far, and it still feels like cutting-edge experimentation in the science of gardening. You are always welcome to participate and be a gardener.
