Gardens
The FOOD for Lane County Gardens Program provides a multi-faceted approach to reduce hunger and fulfill the basic need for nutritious food in our community through a unique combination of services. The Churchill Community Garden, GrassRoots Garden and Youth Farm provide opportunities for limited-income adults to work with others to grow food for themselves and the food bank; education, job training and mentoring of limited-income and at-risk youth; and the creation and distribution of healthy, nutritious emergency and supplemental food to Lane County families, individuals and children.
 | Buy fresh, organic produce from FOOD for Lane County's youth-run Youth Farm Stand, 705 Flamingo Ave., off Game Farm Road, Springfield. The farm stand is open Saturdays, 10am to 2pm, June 14 through October. Proceeds benefit FOOD for Lane County's Gardens Program. |
