Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome, but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling. What you'll be doing: We are partnering with Gahanna Community Congregational Church in their GRIN Produce Garden, where all the produce from the community garden beds is donated to the food pantry. We will be planting crops and working in the garden. Children will learn how community gardens address hunger issues in our community.

This is a rain or shine event and may be moved inside due to weather. Why you'll be asked to donate: Every time we're able to design, coordinate, and offer an opportunity for kids to give back, it's with the help of supporters like you. Please consider making a generous gift to help us continue to empower kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds.
