We are a family center providing resources and services to, primarily, low income families. We have a garden at the school designated as a hunger relief project. We are currently working to harvest fruits and vegetables again given that the director of the Paul Swick Family Center retired unexpectedly and the garden was left unattended. We also try to stock on canned food or long shelf life foods to distribute to our families but we never seem to have enough to keep providing. Any help would be fantastic!

ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
