Business Resources

How can you get your business get involved?

  • 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.
  • We’d love to highlight your business through our social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter! To do this please email information and/or photos of your business participating in the program to Lynne Hazelton at lynne.b.hazelton@maine.edu.
