Help out the Victor/Farmington Food Cupboard

Join us in helping out the Victor/Farmington Food Cupboard this summer by growing a Bucket Garden and sharing your bounty with them. All you need are a bucket, soil, seeds, sunlight, water and a little bit of space. We'll provide the seeds if you'll provide the rest. Seed packets and instructions are available at the library.

Once your produce is ready it can be dropped off on the front porch of the Food Cupboard, located on High Street across from the Y. Donations of packaged food and paper goods are also welcome anytime.

Please help us in feeding our community this summer. Together we are going to set a wonderful example for other communities and for our children who will be participating and watching the process!
