It's an exciting time for Mike's Garden as we open the doors to our new aquaponic greenhouse. This greenhouse project took our small group of volunteers over a year from start to finish and allows us to resume production of our salad greens. This brings us to our first two events and opportunities: planting our greenhouse crop, and Giving Wednesday at the Thrift Shop.
Get Involved
Planting in the Greenhouse: We are looking for volunteers to help plant seeds this Tuesday, September 26, at 1:00pm. Please make sure you contact us in advance to make sure you meet the requirements and complete our paperwork. No special training or equipment needed. The planting will take place on tables and not in the ground, making work tedious and not physical.
Shopping at the Thrift Store: Help Support Mike's Garden by shopping at The Giving Closet Thrift Store this Wednesday, September 27, 2023. 50% of sales will be donated forward to support our mission.
