Volunteers from the Montgomery County Farm Bureau, the Local Health Equity Action Team and the Wildcat Extension District are working together to support local families through a container garden project.

Saturday, volunteers delivered nearly 40 garden tubs to families in Independence. The effort is aimed at helping provide access to fresh produce and encourage home gardening. The group is now planning a similar delivery event in Coffeyville this coming Saturday and is looking for additional volunteers. Anyone interested in helping can call (620)330-1687 to sign up.
