“To help our friends further stabilize their food source, we launched growing with silo, a backyard gardening program that has made, installed and filled 286 raised garden beds in the backyards of the most vulnerable people in oxford. These mini vegetable gardens empower our friends to grow their own food. To increase food growing capacity, silo created the growing together community garden- a place where friends and neighbors come together to grow food for themselves and others. The 1,500 pounds of produce grown in the garden last year was given away on the free produce stand. An average of 130 people visit the garden each month to volunteer, attend an educational workshop or live music event. The garden has expanded to a second location, adding an addition 10,000 square feet of growing space. The new community orchard will increase the amount of fruit we are able to grow and give away to those facing food insecurity.”
