South Garden Volunteers!

Calling all Well Farm Fans!

Please join us on Saturday, September 29 to help get the Well Farm raised beds ready for winter. The first successful growing season is coming to a close, and we need your help collecting the final harvest and removing plants so the beds will be ready for next year's agricultural apprentice program.

We welcome volunteers of all ages to join us for all or part of the event. Please bring your own gardening gloves and wheel barrow (if you have one available to lend for the day). We will provide water.

Learn more about The Well Farm on our Facebook page ( https://www.facebook.com/pg/TheWellFarmPeoria) or at https://www.greenprintpartners.com/peoria-il/.

Mission Statement

Our Mission is to teach the importance of using God’s gifts in our everyday lives in predominantly nature-rich environments. It is the foundation of everything we do.

Description

We focus on providing access to fresh local produce to all, but in food desert areas in particular. We offer cooking classes, nutrition education, with local health departments and governmental agencies to reduce barriers to fresh local food access.

We maintain some 80 raised squre foot garden beds in the South Village of Peoria and utilize a Mobile Fresh Food Van to increase access. We service Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford Counties here in Central Illinois. We are always looking to improve processes, build relationships and search for better ways of doing.

Relationships, partnerships and volunteers are at the heart of who we are.
