Shalom Farms and Hillside Court | Jun 8, 2010
A group of volunteers from Hillside Court and Embrace Richmond joined us at the farm on Friday, June 4th. We harvested well over 300 lbs of collards and squash. Much of the squash and all of the collards were given out with the help of these same volunteers at a community event near Hillside Court on Saturday.The rest of the squash went to Church Hill. We distributed and gathered contact info at the Church Hill Games on Saturday afternoon. What a wonderful event put on by our friends at Blue Sky with the help of CHAT and others. A beautiful collaboration with over 120 kids from the greater Church Hill area participating.
As always, see more pictures and follow us on facebook.
