The Garden is located at the south end of the Rainier High
School parking lot by the large greenhouse at 308 Second Street West in downtown
Rainier.
Our Garden's purpose is to bring the Rainier community and
surrounding areas together and provide educational gardening opportunities for
everyone while growing fresh food and impacting local hunger issues.
We appreciate donations for garden and building materials. Right
now we are looking for seed potatoes, onion and asparagus
starts.
We have built 39 raised beds and are growing an orchard. In 2013, the
garden produced over 2,914 pounds of food and donated
over 2,247 pounds to the Rainier Food Bank. In 2012, the garden
produced over 1,800 pounds of food and donated over 1,400 pounds to the Rainier
Food Bank.
