We have outgrown our small basic greenhouse. We have been able to raise most of the funds to purchase a new substantial larger one. This will benefit our volunteers and schools and will enable us to grow so much more from seed and give us an extra space for teaching, producing more fruit and vegetables to give back to our community. We have found the health and wellbeing of our volunteers and visitors have greatly improved by participating at the community garden.
