Join Viña Lindley, horticulture professional for UMaine Extension, and Mattie John Bamman, communications coordinator for Waldo County Bounty, to learn about Waldo County Bounty’s Give and Take program.
This program offers a simple, stigma-free way to share extra garden produce at community drop-off sites. Participants will learn how the program works, how new sites are chosen and how to start a Give and Take site in their own community.
Registration is required; sliding scale fee options are available. Register on the event webpage to attend live or receive the recording link. For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation, contact Rebecca Gray at 207.356.1348 or extension.gardening@maine.edu.
