Growing your own food can nourish spirits, minds and bodies. We can garden to make nutritious food affordable and to connect with the earth.
Bring yourself, your extra seeds, your wisdom, and gardening equipment you no longer need to the Gardeners Exchange Extravaganza, Sat., Mar. 26, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., Morgan Park Presbyterian Church, 2017 W. 110th Pl. The rain date is Apr. 2.
This event is open for kids and adults, beginners and master gardeners alike. Everything will be put to good use in growing resilient community this season!
