Susan’s Garden

Contact: Dave Ellerbrock, communitygarden@saint-max.org, dmaellerbrock@gmail.com

The goal of this ministry is to build community by growing nutritional food for the common good of others. Anything grown in Susan’s Garden will be given to the Community Meal Center in Hamilton and Reach Out Lakota. The garden is also a catalyst to encourage the members of the parish to share extra vegetation from their personal gardens. The intention of this garden is to raise awareness of the nutritional needs of our neighbors to enhance the holistic approach of mind, body, and spirit. Volunteers are needed for: cultivating and preparing in the spring, assisting in planting and feeding in the spring & summer, weeding and helping with weekly maintenance throughout the summer, harvesting in late summer & fall, collecting food donations from others’ gardens in late summer & fall, and prepping the garden for next year’s growing season in the fall. We grow. We give. In return we receive!
