  In the midst of these difficult times, it is important to celebrate the happy moments when we find them. To this end, the farm will be closing early tomorrow, May 29th to recognize the academic achievements of our staff members Mahlany and Kami who are both continuing their respective educations at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in the fall. If you would like to hear more about their journey from STCC to UMass, click here for an article where they were both interviewed for the school's website. Gardening the Community applauds Mahlany and Kami for their hard work and dedication to the organization, as well as their academic success.
   The farm store will close at 5pm and reopen for normal operating hours on Friday, 10am-6pm. Thank you for your understanding and continued patronage.

Post-Plant Sale Update

Thank you to everyone who came out today for our annual Plant Sale! The weather finally cooperated after a rainy start to the day, and it was so nice to see everyone who stopped by. If you missed out on the event, feel free to stop by and see what we have remaining for plants. There are still plenty of little green babies looking for homes in your gardens. With that being said, the staff here at Gardening the Community are TIRED, so we will be closed until Wednesday, 5/14 at which time we will resume our normal operating hours. We genuinely appreciate the support of our neighbors, patrons, and community.
