📣 Huge shout out to Milton Girl Scout troop 61117 ‼️

They added nutrient-rich soil and planted 40 vegetable plants in the Giving Gardens located at the Milton Lutheran Church. 🪴 🪴
Last year, Milton Venture Scouts 2605, constructed the beds .

This joint effort is certain to produce a bounty of fresh vegetables for Getting Ahead families facing food insecurity, with any surplus produce donated to a local food pantry. 🥕 🌽

Our Scouts are making the world a better place.💙 Please support our scout troops!
