hear Foundation Community Garden Seeks Volunteers

Can you give two hours of your time to help feed a hungry family in our area?

If so, please join us at The HEAR Community Garden at Techny, a joint project of the HEAR Foundation and Techny Divine Word Missionaries.

We serve families. We serve senior citizens. We serve those who are having a hard time “making ends meet”. We serve our community. Fresh vegetables are expensive; they’re out of reach for many families in need. 100% of all vegetable harvests from the HEAR Community Garden are donated directly to qualified pantries and kitchens serving our neighbors. Local recipients include Glenview Youth Services, Northfield Township Food Pantry and A Just Harvest Community Kitchen.

What can you do? Volunteers are needed Tuesday and Saturday of each week to water, weigh, weed and tend to the vegetables. By lending a hand, you will help provide fresh produce, along with the vitamins/minerals needed for a healthy diet, to a young family, an older member of our community, a neighbor.
