hello gardeners!

Grow to Give is away for school, community or home gardeners to give back to local kids and families experiencing hunger. 

​

If you have excess produce, we'd love it for Backpack Society's No Cost Market and Family Food Boxes.

​

Community & Home Garden Donations​

• 1 squash or 20, quantities small and large are needed

• Please ring the door bell, or leave produce in our donation bin next to our front door on Wednesday or Thursday

• Arrange a drop off time by emailing us at info@backpacksociety.org

​

School Gardens

• The Grow to Give program allows schools to teach valuable gardening concepts and skills, integrating several subjects, such as math, science and health, with educational goals

• Backpack Society is a resource to help you create and maintain your school garden

• A way for schools to support Backpack Society by donating surplus produce not used for learning
