Slow Garden Community Share

Since 2016, Slow Food Springfield has partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Central IL and Grow Springfield to provide garden programming and annual farm tours to the students enrolled at the BGCCIL. With an award from the Slow Food National Resilience Fund, these three organizations will work together to harvest and pack Slow Garden Community Share boxes containing a variety of organic produce and recipes to BGCCIL students, bi-weekly, from July through August of 2020.
Interested in seeing it in action? Watch our Slow Garden Community Share presentation.
Thanks to our President Alana Reynolds, Board Members Mat Smith and Elizabeth Ferrer, and Treasurer Deborah Cavanaugh-Grant for their tireless efforts to turn this vision into reality for the children of Central Illinois.
