Harvest Launches Grow-a-Row Program

Food Matters ManitobaWinnipeg Harvest has teamed up with Food Matters Manitoba to create a unique gardening competition.

Manitoba’s Garden Makeover: An Edible Landscaping Competition is an opportunity to learn about and grow edible plants, making gardens both beautiful and tasty.

“Food brings people and communities together, and growing edible gardens provides healthy, affordable access to food,” said Stefan Epp-Koop, acting executive director for Food Matters Manitoba.

The competition encourages families, schools, and communities to grow edible plants and share them with others by donating them to the Grow-a-Row emergency food program.

Details on how to participate are available at FoodMattersManitoba.ca.
