Gardening Project Provides Produce for Needy
Greg Barrette, minister of Unity Northwest Church, shares a story about the Garden Angel project in a Patch Connect video.
Canned and packaged food is often donated to help feed the hungry, but you don’t often see fresh food as part of the mix. That’s what makes Unity Northwest Church’s Garden Angel project so special. Church members take the produce grown in their gardens and bring it to the Des Plaines church. Several local agencies that work with Unity then come to pick up the fresh vegetables and distribute it to people in need.
