Rotary Club Donates to Community Garden Project

February 26, 2016 - The Center Rotary Club President Anna Lee presented a $250 donation for the Community Garden to AgriLife Extension Agents Jheri-Lynn McSwain and Lane Dunn during their Tuesday meeting at the John D. Windham Civic Center.

The Result Demonstration and Community Garden Project will be managed by the AgriLife Extension office; however, it will be a community effort involving local civic groups, community members, and youth groups.

The project will provide an opportunity to complete community service hours and to learn general horticultural practices while providing fresh produce to local food banks. A Result Demonstration Garden will allow visitors to learn about vegetables and plants that grow well in Deep East Texas.
