Thanks to Yvonne and Jacob, a community service volunteer, the shed and the garden look amazing! Please help keep it that way.
So far this year, we have harvested 1815 lbs with some herbs still left to go. This is the biggest harvest ever despite the spring weather!
We could really use leaves and straw bales for compost and mulch. If you've got some to get rid of, please drop off at the community garden or contact David Pierce for pick up 816-392-1110.
So far this year, we have harvested 1,485.6 pounds of nourishment for the hungry in our community!

Thanks to Fisher and his parents, Dennis Squires and Troop 32 for building a shed for the Community Garden as Fisher's Eagle Scout Project!
Hydrant installation: Since Belton could not find the water pipe, we will be getting a new pipe from the meter. Danny Chevalier of Chevalier Construction and Nick Biondo of Four-way Plumbing will be helping Tracy Wheeler with this project! Digging could begin this week! [...]
