Patriot Subaru associates had a nice visit out to the @Biddeford Community Gardens – specifically the Rotary Park location, where we were able to present their team with a donation of $1550 earned from our June “12 Weeks of Giving” program. The BCG has blossomed into 4 community gardens, with 130 raised beds, that are tended to by local volunteers. The food grown is shared, with the majority going to local charitable groups such as the Biddeford Food Pantry, Bon Appetit Meal Program and Youth Full Maine. Excellent! After a humble start in 2012 with 6 beds, it grew into a program that would be officially sponsored by the “Heart of Biddeford”501c3 organization, with additional assistance provided by the City Of Biddeford Public Works and the Biddeford- Saco Rotary. Our Patriot team really enjoyed the visit and the story behind it all. Neighbors helping neighbors is what we love to support with our 12 Weeks program, and we were happy to hear that our donation will help the building of a new greenhouse. Thank you BCG for all you do!
