Start Your Own Garden!

We're encouraging those who can to support our efforts to combat hunger in Mendocino County by starting a home garden! Any extra food can be donated to the Fort Bragg Food Bank, or passed around to friends and families in need.
The Fort Bragg Food Bank is now accepting seed or starts for donation. We will offer these in a "seed library" at the Fort Bragg Food Bank, and they will be available to clients who ask for them, as long as they're in stock! So far, we have some awesome starts and some seeded paper. Grow your own lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, herbs, and more!
Some of our staff are already close to repotting! Take advantage of the spring sun and rain and start your gardens now! If you can't plant outdoors (we understand animals can be relentless), some staff have had success using a regular flower pot in a sunny window!
With questions about growing food, please email mary@mendofood.org. To donate food, simply stop by the Fort Bragg Food Bank during open hours or email lisi@mendofood.org.
