Description

Help Plant This Year's Crop of Sweet Potatoes at the HHFB Gardens at Will Detmer Park

Our plants have been delayed from the supplier - so we have had to postpone this planting event until June 11

We have 1000 sweet potato slips that need to be planted and hilled into our garden at Will Detmer Park. Sweet potatoes harvested in the fall will be shared for distribution with our over 100 member agencies across 6 counties.  No gardening experience is required. Please wear closed-toed shoes and clothes you’re willing to get dirty.

Meet at 9 am on Friday, June 11 at Will Detmer Park, 4140 W Vernal Pike. The workday will continue until all the slips have been planted, hopefully by noon or 1 pm.

Please RSVP with Cory at garden@hhfoodbank.org if you’re interested so he can notify you of a weather reschedule.
