The garden steering committee and members of the "Green Team" at Cumberland Congregational Church have been busy planting and tending to seedling which will be sold this Sunday, May 22 and during the Cumberland Memorial Day Parade Monday, May 30. All proceeds will benefit the Cumberland Community Garden. Both sales are on rain or shine. The church is on the corner of Tuttle/Blanchard Road and Maine Street (Rt. 9) in Cumberland.
May 24 - 11:00 am to 1:00 pm
May 30 - 9:30 am to noon
The Memorial Day event will include a bake sale and raffle of a garden themed basket.
Please consider buying some of our seedlings. We also will accept financial contributions to the garden in any amount. If you would like to donate with a check, make it payable to "Town of Cumberland" and note that it is a donation to the garden.
Don't forget - everything we grow will be donated to local food pantries.
