For gardeners, this is the time to plan and plant seeds in anticipation of a good growing season ahead.SIRCH in Haliburton, which stands for Supportive Initiative for Residents in the County of Haliburton is inviting those with green thumbs to grow a row of vegetables to help supplement the organization's goal to feed those locally who struggle to put food on the table. By donating the vegetables to SIRCH, you help keep costs down while supporting those who are experiencing food insecurity, so it's a win-win for everyone.The Grow a Row program gives gardeners all they need to get started and great support along the way. Two local Master Gardeners will provide both growing tips and guidance to local gardeners and an upcoming welcome workshop will bring all the growers together to kick off the initiative and share best practices.
