These bins are located on the outside of the Wyandotte Community Garden for gardeners to share extra produce from their harvests. Neighbors are welcome to add extra homegrown produce too. Anything placed in these bins is free for anyone who can use it.
We also want to follow up on our recent post about produce being taken from individual garden plots. Our Community Garden operates like many others in the region and as it has for years: each plot is cared for by an individual gardener, and what is grown in that plot belongs to them.
At the same time, we know there is a growing need for food support in our community. If you or someone you know needs assistance, here are a few local resources:
🍎Downriver Community Food Pantry — 135 Superior Blvd. 734-281-6733
🍎 First Baptist Church Food Pantry & Blessings Box — 1925 Ford Ave. 734-282-1424
🍎 St. Stephen’s Blessings Box — 2803 First St. 734-284-8777
🍎The Salvation Army Downriver — 1258 Biddle Ave. 734-282-0930
🍎 Little Free Food Boxes - 534 & 539 Forest St.
🍎 Michigan 211 — Additional food and community resources | Dial 211
Some of these organizations also accept fresh produce donations, so if you have more from your garden than you can use, consider reaching out to see what they can accept and help get that harvest into the hands of neighbors who need it.
Our goal is to respect the work of our individual gardeners while also finding meaningful ways to share what we can and connect our neighbors with support.
