As Community Garden Kitchen, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, nears the finish line with construction of a new kitchen, this important piece of the nonprofit is beginning to grow. In addition to the garden serving as a source of food in the kitchen to feed people in need, the Globe Life Garden will also be used to teach gardening skills to anyone interested in learning how to grow food, even on a small plot of land.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“At Globe Life, our mission is to Make Tomorrow Better. Our partnership with Community Garden Kitchen allows us to grow stronger together as a community by providing for a daily need and giving\u00a0our employees the opportunity to actively volunteer,” said Jennifer Haworth<\/span>, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Globe Life.<\/p>\n

The Episcopal Diocese of Dallas<\/span>, the property owner, is leasing the land to CGK for $10<\/span> a year. Volunteers have already cleared debris, trimmed trees, and planted seeds. A design is in the works along with grass removal and installation of a watering system.\u00a0While McKinney Roots, another local nonprofit, has donated many needed materials, the garden will have additional costs for design, development, and continued growth.\u00a0Donations to Community Garden Kitchen will help purchase materials for 16 raised beds, fertile soil, various vegetable and fruit seeds, irrigation equipment and needed gardening supplies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We are very excited and grateful to see all the volunteers who are working to create a beautiful and bountiful garden that will benefit so many in our community,” said Angela Poen<\/span>. “We hope others will want to help us grow too!” Volunteers can find opportunities on CGK’s website at www.communitygardenkitchen.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n
