Community Garden
We are happy to work in and with 7 different community gardens within our community. 5 of the gardens supply fresh produce to local food pantries. We encourage and welcome volunteers to join us. 2 are lockated in lower-income apartment communities where these gardens are divided into family plots, which families sign up to use and are responsible for throughout the growing season. The gardens at these locations were started due to an increased interest in providing fresh food bank into the community.
We offer workshops and hands-on learning opportunities at the Fredericksburg Area Food Bank Community Garden to all who are interested. Please contact Lindsey Williams, Fresh Foods Program Manager at lwilliams1@feedingamerica.org or at (540) 371.7666 ext. 132
