Plant a Row for the Hungry

"If you are a passionate gardener, why not share the fruits of your labor and help feed the hungry by donating some of your crops? The South Carolina Department of Agriculture has partnered with the state’s Master Gardener Associations in support of the Plant-A-Row for the Hungry campaign to benefit the Harvest Hope Food Bank.

Plant-A-Row is a ‘people-to-people’ program that connects home gardeners who grow extra vegetables and fruits with people in our community in need of nutritious food. Planting vegetables is a thrifty and smart choice for gardeners and the extra produce will make a huge difference for those in need. Even a bundle of fresh herbs is a welcome addition because it can add great flavor to foods and provide some nutrients as well."
