Got a Green (or Purple) Thumb?

You're invited to help grow beautiful vegetables in HPC's Garden of Grace! This garden of 3 raised beds along Louellen Street was started 2 years ago under our former Engaging in Justice and Service Ministry.

The impetus for this garden was, and continues to be, providing fresh vegetables for the Chubby's Project, a local, nonprofit, community service organization lending a helping hand to those facing food insecurity and other concerns. The Sharing Garden at St. Michael's Preserve provides the bulk of vegetables needed by the Chubby's project, which is also supplemented by produce from several generous area farmers. However, the Garden of Grace is small but mighty! Last year, in addition to other vegetables, we provided over 80 lbs of cucumbers and 9 lbs of snap peas, the core source of these particular vegetables to the Chubby's project last year.  Snap peas are once again in the ground and we're looking forward to this new growing season!

Please consider joining us in this fun and "fruitful" endeavor!  No gardening experience necessary!  We welcome individuals and families of all ages and abilities to help us plant seeds or seedlings, water the garden, and harvest the goods in the coming growing season. If interested in helping in some way, please sign-up here. 

If you're not quite sure, but interested to learn more, contact Anne Hayton or the Church Office.
