A huge thank you to the Rotary Club of Spruce Pine for their continued support over the years. ๐Ÿ’š

The original shed at the garden was generously donated by Rotary, and it has played such an important role in helping us grow, organize, and support the work happening at Riverside Park season after season.

Weโ€™re deeply grateful for community partners like Rotary who continue to invest in local food access, education, and connection right here in Mitchell County. Thank you for being part of this work with us! ๐ŸŒฑ

Donations to the program help us provide materials, soil, plants, and continued support to local households working toward greater food security and self-sufficiency. Every contribution helps more gardens grow ๐ŸŒป

Through the Home Gardener Program, participating households receive a raised bed, soil, plants, education, and ongoing support to help grow food at home throughout the season.

From building beds and hauling woodchips to planting veggie starts and getting hands in the soil, this program is all about growing food, confidence, knowledge, and community together.
