Thank you all for all your patience as we begin our first year with the community garden, I know it will be a lot of work this year but I think the rewards will be abundant!

If you have funds or materials to contribute please contact the garden coordinator, rwcommgarden@gmail.com.

For information on how to donate your extra garden produce to the "Plant a Row for the Hungry" program and the Red Wing Food Shelf, please see our PAR flier.
