A majority of the items harvested from the community garden and greenhouse will be donated to the Community Free Meals program. The Community Free Meals program is open to all community members. This program prepares meals and assorted groceries to be distributed, free of charge, to individuals and families experiencing food insecurity. Anyone that needs food is welcome. In addition, items harvested will be given to Meals on Wheels, local senior living facilities, and used for cooking classes for senior citizens at the Oxford Senior Center.
