Volunteer for the Pleasantville Community Garden
garden, collect, transport: and if you have more produce than you know what to do with in your own garden, they have a suggestion: donate.
The Pleasantville Community Garden is looking for volunteers, and they have several ways you can help.
- Gardening: People to help weed, water, harvest and take care of our garden.
- Collecting: Help out at the Pleasantville Farmers Market by collecting leftover vegetables to bring to the pantry.
- Transporting: Volunteer to drive vegetables to the pantry.
Conceived by then 7th-grader Devin Juros, the Pleasantville Community Garden is an eco-friendly garden dedicated to help combat hunger in our area. The garden, located on the grounds of St. John's Episcopal Church on Sunnyside Avenue, supplies fresh vegetables to local pantries.
In search of volunteers, they've even added a fourth category, according to Pleasantville HamletHub, one just for local gardeners. If you have so much produce in your own garden that you are at wit's end what to do with it — donate it to the Community Garden, to be donated to someone in need.
