Garden of Giving gives thanks to community

Dear Editor,

The Garden of Giving located in McMichaels Hillside Terrace, Saylorsburg, is most thankful for:

The 200 volunteers who come to the garden annually to weed, water and plant. The United Way of Monroe County for their continued support.

All of those who have committed to providing support for the Garden of Giving. Steve Hughes of the Penn State Extension, who provided 40 new hens.

The fourth-grade class that hatched the new hens, helping the Garden of Giving donate 65,000 eggs to date to Monroe County neighbors in need.

The Pocono Community Bible Church which hosted the Fill the Truck event in Mount Pocono and all those who came to the Fill the Truck and donated feed, supplies and funds for future needs.

Volunteer Candace Roper who has been running the office for over three years. Board members and founder Tammy Graeber, whose vision created the Garden of Giving.

The Garden of Giving is always in need of volunteers to help in the office, serve on the board, and help in the garden, as well as donations of supplies and funding to purchase what is needed for the Garden and chickens. There are always projects for youth, Scouts and those looking for community service opportunities.
