Fighting Hunger. Sustaining Hope.
Grow a Row for St. Joe’s
Did you know that we provide at least seven fresh fruits and vegetables to our pantry clients each week?
Our generous community of gardeners donated over 55,000 pounds of fresh produce in 2023! These items go directly to our clients each week they visit St. Joe’s, and save us thousands of dollars in food cost. You can join the Grow a Row Program, too, and feed your neighbors with locally grown food!
Getting involved is as easy as 1, 2, 3!
Plant an extra row or potted plant of produce for St. Joseph Food Program
Tend to the plant throughout the growing season
Once ready to pick, drop off the donated produce to St. Joe’s during our donation hours
