Additionally\, there are five giving gardens that are maintained by the entire garden community. The produce from the giving gardens is donated to local food banks. To foster the love of growing and eating local food and the enjoyment of good company\, events such as potlucks\, garden tours\, a salsa contest\, and a harvest festival are held throughout the growing season. \nIf you would like to become a member of the garden or learn more about it\, visit the website at mkpgarden.com.
