Create a garden on your property or maintain a garden plot at a community garden to grow vegetables and fruit to donate to a food pantry in Cumberland County.
Get your staff involved!
Having workers volunteer in the garden can help to boost productivity, communication in the workplace, and allow your workers to gain a sense of community.
What are the benefits?
Studies show that 74% of employees say their job is more fulfilling when they are provided with opportunities to make a positive impact on social and environmental issues.
