Adopt a box today! 🌻

Our Lincoln Family Garden needs your help! Are you able to adopt a garden box for the summer? Boxes are approximately 4 feet by 8 feet and are already planted. Adoptive families would try to go to the garden about once a week to w**d, water and harvest the box. You get to take the harvest home to enjoy! Any Lincoln family is welcome to help in the garden at any time, but this ensures each box gets a little specific attention. It's a great diversion on your evening walks. Adopt a box today!
