We are pleased to announce Seeds for Seniors for the second year. The Fairhaven Sustainability Committee is donating small peat pellet greenhouses and seeds to interested seniors in Fairhaven. We hope that everyone will enjoy planting and growing something to eat and enjoy for the year. Our goal is to encourage gardening, and growing your own produce. Each greenhouse comes with instructions for planting. The greenhouses can be reused or recycled for another season. We also have refill seeds for those who want to reuse their greenhouses from last year.
We are working with both the Senior Center and the Housing Authority to distribute these to seniors in town. Anyone interested in the program can call the Fairhaven Senior Center to sign up at 508-979-4029. There is a limited supply, so please call if you are interested to have your name on the list.
We also have three “Community Gardens” in Fairhaven if you are interested in having the use of a 4’x8’ raised bed to plant your seeds or grow some more produce. For more information please contact Lisa Elliott lisaelliott36@gmail.com, garden coordinator, or visit the website: www.fairhavencommunitygarden.org
For more information about the “Seeds for Seniors” program you can email fairhavensustainability@gmail.com or call 508-287-2831- Ann Richard
