Hey friends, this is the new FB page for the official Giving Garden. Please give it a like and consider donating to support our cause.
Our next big project is installing a 50’x100’ blueberry plot located in Cave Spring, VA.
As always, any produce we grow is donated locally and funds raised are put back into the projects we install and manage. Thank you so much for your support!!
