Sprouting Greens Project launch

 

What a wonderful way to launch a project.  The Sprouting Green Project, launched on May 29th at the Windfields Community Garden, was a tremendous success, where over 40 volunteers participated in designing, hoeing, planting, eating and drinking, and of course building community and having fun.

With 4 garden plots, measuring 5ft by 30ft, the team planted tomatoes, pumpkins, beans, zucchinis, to name a few.  Everyone was so enthusiastic on this bright Sunday and all for a great cause, feeding hungry people. The produce will be donated to local food banks.

The Project is a partnership between fbsc.org, TD Canada Trust, Friends of the Environment and Meals Exchange Canada.
