Very exciting to see this new hoop house ready for the season at our AmeriCorps partner site, Allen Neighborhood Center! Kelsey (pictured far right) is currently serving as a ICHD Public Health AmeriCorps member, Hillary (center jumping) is a 2022-2024 ICHD AmeriCorps alum and Nate (left of Hillary) also served from 2016-2017
We are super excited for our new hoophouse! This project was a great partnership between Allen Neighborhood Center and Greater Lansing Food Bank Garden Project (with technical support from Bendy Stem Farm, Magnolia Farms, and 1991greenery,LLC ).
This hoop house will help us extend our season to grow culturally important food crops to save seed from and distribute back to our neighbors free of cost! Our neighborhood is diverse in every sense of the word, and we're thrilled to expand our capacity to provide produce that reflects our wonderful community 😍
