What started as small seedlings is now the beginning of something meaningful across our community 🌱

A huge thank you to Green Bay Botanical Garden for sharing these plants with us. They’re making their way into the hands of families, farmers, and community partners who will turn them into fresh food, shared meals, and new traditions.

We’re so excited to watch these gardens take root, grow, and flourish all season long 💚
