Plummer Home Garden Project

The Plummer Home Garden Project was started three years ago by a group of local gardeners working with the Plummer Home.

The idea was to garden side by side with boys at the Plummer Home to foster connections with nature, community, food and business.

In the past three years, young gardeners have gathered seaweed for soil enrichment and tilled the land. They have collected seeds, planned crops, and plotted natural deterrents to greedy groundhogs.

Next spring, the group is planning to till its field with horse drawn plows. We are excited about all of this, and want to thank all who have supported our program!

Gourds grown by Plummer Home boys and community volunteers are now available for purchase at a local green grocer Milk & Honey!
