We are incredibly grateful to Paulding Putnam Electric’s Operation Round Up program for helping support the expansion of our WIC Community Garden for the 2026 season! 🌱🌸

Because of this support, we will be able to continue growing opportunities for local families through nutrition education, fresh produce, pollinator spaces, and hands-on community involvement! We are so eager for this growing season!

As our garden grows, we are currently accepting donations of seedlings and garden starters. If you or someone you know would like to donate plants, please contact the WIC office at 419-399-2621.

Some plants and crops we are especially looking for include:
• Tomatoes
• Cucumbers
• Squash
• Peppers
• Herbs
• Native pollinator flowers

Community garden participation sign-up information will be posted soon at the WIC clinic and on the WIC page.

We are so thankful for a community that continues to support one another and help us create meaningful opportunities for local families.
