Spudnik Summer Growth and Harvesting Going Strong
Project Spudnik Garden is working towards fall crops with a limited team of supporters. We love welcoming additional helping hands so we can keep growing fresh food for local pantries and share the joy (and pride!) of growing it together.
Come learn to grow your own food and talk to other gardeners! You may see some pollinators like bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. We maintain raised, accessible beds designed for gardeners of all abilities—whether you’re brand new or you’ve been gardening for years.
