Plant a Row Opportunity

Many in our community struggle to feed their loved ones. Once again, we have an opportunity to help. Jackson County Master Gardeners Association encourages people to participate in the Plant a Row Program. ACCESS Community Action Agency of Jackson County will again accept our produce this year.

Last year, JCMGA donated over 700 pounds of produce to our local ACCESS!

Would you like to donate produce to people in need? There are three steps to participating.

1. Grow food! Whether you have a community garden plot, or just a few tomato plants, every pound helps.
2. The produce can be dropped off at the Gathering Place area at the SOREC Extension, 569 Hanley Road, on Wednesdays from 10:00-11:00 a.m. We begin collecting donations on July 24th.
3. Once you’ve dropped off your donation, there is a record sheet which you use to record how much produce (by weight) you have donated so we can keep track!  The Members Services Working Group and the Community Outreach Working Group are working on this.
4. Remember, every pound counts!!
