Heading over to Beresford Park Community Garden this afternoon, I was expecting to retrieve some freshly harvested zucchini from the GROW San Mateo donation box. What I didn't expect was the surprise that Marcy & Patrick unveiled...a whole raised bed at the entrance to the garden - planted with several types of green beans, flowers and hot peppers - all to be donated on an ongoing basis to the Food Pharmacy!
To the many gardeners at Beresford Park who donated to their time, seeds, plants and ongoing care to the new Food Pharmacy bed - thank you! Neighbor helping neighbor. That's what community is all about - and you all have demonstrated that with your generosity. And that zucchini donation...I couldn't carry it all!
So many gardeners in the community are contributing to the Food Pharmacy this summer. Thank you all for your continued support. Word is that Food Pharmacy clients LOVE receiving the harvest that you share. Thank you.
Be well & grow.
