Community Garden
District 21 received funding to initiate a community garden this year and 2024. In an effort to help community members by growing our own food, harvesting, and canning workshops, we are striving to foster the community spirit of helping each other, and teaching learning while growing relationships.
We have put together canned produce, whatever fresh potatoes we harvested, and beef and pork from local farmers to assist our citizens.
