‘Grow a little extra’ this summer to help fight food insecurity

Calling all gardeners! This summer, join First Lady Jennie Gordon’s Wyoming Hunger Initiative, the Cent$ible Nutrition Program, and the University of Wyoming Extension for the fifth year of Grow A Little Extra.

We invite you to join us in growing a little extra to donate fresh produce to local anti-hunger organizations that support our neighbors facing food insecurity.

Stop by your local UW Extension office at 818 S Federal in Riverton or 3 Ethete Rd in Ft. Washakie to pick up your free seeds and/or to donate extra harvest from your garden. If they run out, more can be ordered based on the need.

Contact Jolene Velarde, your local Cent$ible Nutrition Program educator at 307-857-3660 or jvelard1@uwyo.edu for more information.
