On March 10th, 2018 YMF pitched in at St. Vincent de Paul’s Community Garden Located in downtown Phoenix. The garden grows organic fruits and vegetables that St Vincent de Paul uses in meals for needy families. YMF assisted in spreading compost on two planting beds, in creating berms in the beds to enhance irrigation, and in clearing out a section of the garden that had been overrun with weeds and grass. All in all, YMF put in some hard work while learning some key aspects of sustainable gardening such as effective composting.
