We are in need of volunteers to help clear out garden beds for fall planting in our community garden. Volunteers can also help with harvesting, watering, planting and composting as needed. Harvested fruits and vegetables willl be made available to local agencies to combat hunger along the Central Gulf Coast. We have a limited amount of garden tools and gloves available, but we encourage you to bring your own if you have any!

If you have further questions or wish to speak with a human, call Meghan Tanner at (251)653-1617 ext 118 or email at mtanner@feedingthegulfcoast.org

As a member of Feeding America, and a United Way Member Agency, Feeding the Gulf Coast works through member organizations and special programs to provide nutritious food to meet the challenge of feeding people who are hungry as a result of systemic poverty, personal crisis or disaster. Feeding the Gulf Coast also educates the public regarding domestic hunger, proper nutrition and other related issues.
