PLANT a row at home, GROW veggies, then SHARE with the food pantry
Are you a home gardener with a green thumb? Plant a few extra vegetable plants this season in order to provide fresh produce to your neighbors in need! Our Plant.Grow.Share. program encourages local individuals and organizations to donate a portion of their harvest to Interfaith's food pantry.
The Plant.Grow.Share. program helps the community focus on not only feeding, but nourishing, our neighbors in need.
The program often includes community garden workshops and free seeds or seedlings. Please see sidebar on this page for this year's programming.
Community Support
Plant.Grow.Share. is a partnership between Interfaith, Keohane Funeral Home, Weymouth Food Pantry and Holly Hill Farm.
As part of the program, volunteers plant a garden each Spring at our office in Quincy. Interfaith’s alleyway food pantry garden shows that healthy food can be grown virtually anywhere.
We're grateful to the many local organizations that plant gardens and bring fresh produce to the food pantry all summer long. A few of these include: Quincy Police Department, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Milton Community Garden, Hough's Neck Congregational Church and St. Agatha's Parish. Thank you!

How to Help
-
Growing your own and have extras to share? Bring them by our food pantry (105 Adams St., Quincy – please drive around back) Monday, Wednesday & Friday between 12:30-3:30pm, Tuesday & Thursday between 12:30-7pm, and Saturday 10am-3:30pm.

If you’re not able to grow your own produce, you can also purchase some from the supermarket or make a monetary donation. Fresh fruits and vegetables are the healthiest foods for you, but they are also the most expensive. Thank you!
