This Season's EPH Garden Harvest Special Thanks

Thank you again to Karen Kegel, EPH Garden Coordinator Extraordinaire and all the volunteers, including Cheri Shebesta and Patti Schuchart, who worked in the garden again this year! They harvested about 470# of produce. While they did plant a smaller amount this year, a late start, cool and rainy weather, along with munching done by local rabbits and squirrels, all attributed to the amount of the harvest, which was still significant! Along with providing fresh produce for our families, we still had extra to share with St. Patrick’s food pantry on the larger pickings. Many thanks Mary Bollom of The Salvation Army for distributing the produce to our EPH families. EPH is looking for a volunteer to oversee the garden in 2020. It is located on the west side of Green Bay at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church. Some of the volunteers would love to help again next year, however, we need someone to Coordinate.  If you or someone you know would be interested in assisting this project, please contact the EPH office at [email protected] or 920-676-3779 for more information.

Snow Blower Volunteers Needed Oh, the weather outside is frightful! Well, maybe not frightful quite yet, but we’ve certainly experienced early winter weather! As such, EPH is in need of help blowing snow at a couple of our west-side homes this winter. If this is something you’d enjoy helping out with, please contact us at [email protected] .
