Fun Facts about Prince of Peace’s Community Garden
This year there are 32 plots in our Community Garden.
Gardeners donate 10% of their growth to LIFE Food Pantry each week (some much more!) and we donated 64 meal kits in 2024
Almost half of our gardeners are neighbors and friends of our church
Straw bale gardening means no weeding.
We offer workshops in straw bale gardening techniques each winter/spring.
