Plant a Row for the Hungry at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church

Join us in growing vegetables for local food banks. In 2007, our congregation opened an 18' x 18' vegetable plot in front of our church on Michigan Avenue.

To date, through what we have grown and donations received by local growers, we have donated over 2200 pounds, more than a ton, of fresh produce to our local food bank, Food Gatherers, www.foodgatherers.org

Find out how your organization can use a sunny piece of land to grow instead of mow. Our bishop will officially open our garden on June 14th. See the Poverty and Hunger calendar and resource sections for more information.
