Support the Twin Lakes Garden

Basket of vegetables

Twin Lakes Food Bank‘s garden is the heart of our mission to nourish and educate the community on the benefits of fresh produce.

We grow thousands of pounds of organic produce annually, and to ensure sustainability, we compost to reduce food waste and create nutrient-rich soil. Our year-round organic garden includes 60 raised beds, 20 fruit trees, a greenhouse, and composting area.

SOME WAYS TO GET INVOLVED

  • Volunteer for weeding, planting, or harvesting
  • Donate seeds, starter kits, or gently used garden supplies
  • Donate excess produce from your fruit trees to feed your hungry neighbors
  • Start a project at the garden with your service group, student, or scout teams

For more information email volunteer@twinlakesfoodbank.org
