HISTORY

Kid's Garden Club began in 2019 as a way to teach children the importance of getting outside, learning to grow your own food, embracing their creativity, and how God is at the root of it all. Over the years it has grown in number and location and has become an activity for the entire family to enjoy together.

ABOUT

Kid's Garden Club meets once a month from February through November at the community garden at the Millerstown Community Park. Comprised of over thirty volunteers, we teach from a multigenerational perspective giving the opportunity for families to learn together and keep the conversation going within their homes. At each monthly club meeting families rotate in groups through four different stations - garden lesson, bible lesson, art activity, and nature walk. Families not only attend garden club, but help tend to the community garden.

Produce from the garden is shared in numerous ways, some is given to the Bread of Life Outreach food pantry in Newport, some goes home with the families attending garden club, and some is left in the garden to facilitate a pick-your-own model for the community.
