Biddeford Community Gardens is excited to be partnering with Youth Full Maine this year to raise money for a 30’x48’ Rimol Nor’easter Greenhouse which will be built near our Rotary Park Community Garden. The greenhouse will be used for starting seedlings in the spring, growing winter greens year round for our three local food service organizations: Youth Full Maine, Biddeford Food Pantry, and Bon Appetit Community Meal Program, and providing a classroom setting for horticulture programming for our local schools. The anticipated budget for the greenhouse, installation, and sitework will be $40,000.
Help Biddeford Community Gardens continue to grow and thrive year round with the addition of a greenhouse! Payment options: Check made payable to Heart of Biddeford (our fiscal sponsor) with a notation for Biddeford Community Gardens. Or donate here through Go Fund Me.
Thank you! – The BCG Garden Team
Biddeford Community Gardens built its flagship garden in 2018. Since then, the Mission Hill Community Garden has served as a welcoming communal growing space in one of Biddeford’s low-income neighborhoods. All participants share in the harvest and extra veggies are donated to local food service organizations, including a hotel, which serves as temporary housing for asylum seekers. Our beds are in disrepair and desperately need replacing. Please donate today to help this project win a SeedMoney grant. The fundraiser ends December 15th so our time is limited to reach our goal of $3,500. We very much appreciate your support.
