Community Garden is Underway!
The kids at the Stevens Youth Center were finally able to start planting their veggie garden. They were given grant money to do so by the Meagher County Community Foundation in connection with the Horizons Across Montana program. Master Gardener Melinda Vennard was kind enough to lend her expertise to the project. We are in the process of building two more beds and hope that the gardening season will be kind to us this summer. The food grown in these gardens will be used by the Youth Center summer program and the families of the kids who attend. If we are able to produce enough food, we hope to get it out into the community to those who need it. The Stevens Youth Center runs its free summer program for those going into K-6th grades every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 10 am - 12 pm. Call or email Bethany with questions, 547-KIDS (5437) or stevensyouthcenter@yahoo.com.
