Mansfield and YMCA Donate Garden Plots to Daily Bread Food Pantry

The Town of Mansfield and the Hockomock YMCA donate plots from the Mansfield Community Garden to the Our Daily Bread Food Pantry to help feed the 120 families in need.

The YMCA and the Town of Mansfield donated a plot of land to Mansfield’s  to grow vegetables for the 120 + families that utilize the pantry on a weekly basis. 

The Food Pantry received donated plants from Patrick Lyons Greenhouse and Home Depot.   On Saturday, June 23, a group of student volunteers helped to plant the garden and will be helping me maintain the and delivering the vegetables to the pantry all summer.   

The students planted tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet peppers, celery, yellow squash and green beans.
