Redeemer Community Garden Project
The Redeemer Community Garden connects people through the joy of growing fresh nutritious food. Together we will learn to care for the land entrusted to us through environmentally sustainable ways which are pleasing to God and all His creation.
Community members will be allotted space to grow and harvest food for non-commercial use. Thirty-three plots, each 6'x24' will be ready for planting on Sat., May 15, 2010. One plot will be reserved for Redeemer's Preschool, Five for OCDC Head Start Families, one for growing produce to be given to the Solid Rock Community Church food bank and MPFS, and one for the Garden Committee as a Redeemer CSA-type fund raiser (community supported agriculture).
Consideration will also be made for handicap-accessible raised beds. When the garden is established and operating smoothly, expansion will be considered as needed.
