Harvest Hope's Plant a Row Program!
Harvest Hope Food Bank serves 20 counties in South Carolina. Currently they have a new campaign called Plant A Row for the Hungry, where they are asking gardeners in South Carolina to plant an extra row and to donate the harvest from that row to the food bank. If this sounds like a project that you and your school might be interested in participating in, please visit: http://www.harvesthope.org/plantarow.aspx
