The garden is an approved Michigan State University Extension "Plant A Row" site. Fresh produce harvested at the end of the season is donated to needy families. 
In preparation for planting day, the Yesteryear's Farm Tractor Club broke ground in mid-April. Club members plowed and tilled the field, the first step to any garden opening. This past weekend, garden managers along with students from Clarkston High School's National Honor Society readied the beds and did a general clean-up on the site. 
There are other volunteer opportunities at the Community Garden for individuals and groups throughout the summer. 
Besides middle school and high school youth groups, Scout groups, neighborhood groups and families, the garden is in need of five garden managers and master gardeners. 
To volunteer, call the Independence Township Recreation Department at (248) 625-8223.
