A opportunity for all of our community to help! Being able to do this will allow people with low income levels to learn to garden and raise their own fruit and vegs to supplement their food needs.  All they need is some dirt and seeds and seedlings - which can be provided!    In turn, having healthy alternatives can build healthier bodies that require less medical care over time.
