Volunteers Needed to Help Distribute Nancy’s Garden Produce to Local Food Banks!!!

We are looking for a few volunteers to travel from Nancy’s Garden to the FIRC food bank on Tuesday mornings and Dillon Community Church food bank on Monday and/or Friday afternoons. All of the produce will be prepared and ready to go we just need someone to help us out with the delivery! If interested call Jannine @ (970)453-9333 or email at jannine@summitpreventionalliance.org.

The Thrift and Treasure – Our 1st Produce Sale Site!

Monday the 2nd of August I set up a table full of bok choy, cabbage, zucchini, kohlrabi, spinach, romaine lettuce, parsley, marjoram, cat nip and collard greens at the Thrift and Treasure! The cabbage, zucchini and spinach went so quickly that I decided this coming week I better bring more! All of the organic produce is from Nancy’s Community Garden in Frisco and all suggested produce price donations go back to support Nancy’s garden. We did so well we have decided to have produce available at the Thrift and Treasure every Monday morning at 10am. This coming week we will have special mixed herb salads and stress ease herb bunches to use as teas or in your favorite dish! Stop by to say hello, sample some veggies and take some with you! Stay tuned for more produce sale location details. Don’t forget I can be reached at jannine@summitpreventionalliance.org – 970-453-9333 for more details.

We have also been able to donate to the Elks Tuesday night community dinners as well as the senior dinners! Thanks to all our volunteers for making this possible!
