A great harvest feels even more meaningful when we share it with our community. 💚

This week, our volunteers harvested peppers, basil, tomatoes, okra, and more that will be donated to North Fulton Community Charities to help provide fresh food to local families in need.

From planting and tending to harvesting and giving, this is what community agriculture is all about. We’re so grateful to everyone who gets their hands in the soil and helps turn a garden harvest into something that can make a difference beyond the garden.

Growing food. Giving back. Growing community.

📸Thank you, Matthew Choe, for capturing these amazing photos of our flower workshop!
