Event hosted by the Columbia-Pacific Food Bank:
Would you like to grow tomatoes for your community and your family? Well we have the perfect opportunity for you! Due to the cancellation of many plants sales here in the county, we will be receiving approximately 100 tomato plants for free. Yes, these are all donated to Columbia Pacific Food Bank. The idea here is to grow these plants, feed your family and donate a portion back to us to share with our clients.
If you would like to receive some of these plants please e-mail Meagan Fawcett at meagan@cpfoodbank.org to reserve yours. You must be available for pick up between the hours of 3pm and 8pm on Thursday April 30th. Meagan will schedule a pick up time for you at the food bank, located on Milton Way. We can’t wait to hear from you!
Post your photos of tomato plants that you are growing and use the hashtag #growatomatocc
Additionally, if Master Gardeners and other backyard gardeners have surplus plant starts to donate to this great cause, please reach out to Meagan at the food bank to discuss drop-off procedures. MGs – please track your donations and we will give you volunteer credit hours for your efforts and generosity!
