🌽Look at this beautiful sweet corn fresh from our community garden!

Our garden volunteers have been working hard all season - planting, watering, weeding, tending, and patiently watching the garden grow.

Every vegetable harvested from the garden represents time, care, and dedication from volunteers who are passionate about providing fresh, locally grown produce for our neighbors. We know how proud they are what they've grown so far this season, and we're pretty proud of them too! 💚

A HUGE thank you to our amazing garden volunteers for everything you do. From tiny seeds to beautiful harvests, you are making a difference! 🥕🍅
