The Problem

There is a plot of land that the public library has donated. We are using it to create a garden so that we can teach others how to garden. All the produce is going to be used donatated to the food shelters and churches around the area.

Why It's Important

The community we live in is a prospering rural community. We wanted to give back and show that all ages know how to farm and raise crops.

The Plan Of Action

First we are going to ask the local food market and ask for a donation of a few citrus plants, as it is winter. Then we will have a Garden day where volunteers, and club members shall fix the garden and decorate it.

How Can Others Get Involved?

 
We just need a few ideas for winter thriving plants, and maybe some donated plants.
