Volunteer to help a neighbor or elderly family member with their garden from planting to harvest. Our senior citizens living on fixed incomes are one of the hardest hit sectors when it comes to rising food costs. Although there are many "old timer" gardeners out there with the knowledge, they might not have the physical stamina to garden as much as they used to. Lend a hand!
