Welcome to the Wesley Church Community Garden! Our mission is to provide fresh, nutritious, locally-grown produce to area food pantries, all thanks to the wonderful efforts of our community members. We have participants from both Wesley Church and the wider community, making it a true team effort.
Since we started in 2011, our garden has donated over 7,000 pounds of produce. Recently, we’ve even turned the Wesley Church atrium into a greenhouse by using the abundant sunlight to grow seedlings before planting season!
Each growing season, we work together as a collaborative garden, collectively cultivating our harvest. By joining us, you’ll be part of a team that donates at least 50% of our produce to local food pantries. Twice a week, volunteers transport these donations, along with other non-perishable items, to New Bethany Ministries.
There are many ways to get involved in the Wesley Church Community Garden:
- Collaboratively working on our garden projects
- Assisting with larger garden-wide initiatives
- Joining the watering rotation (especially in late spring and early summer)
- Helping transport donated produce to food pantries
