Jefferson Franklin Community Action Organization is putting together a small community garden to benefit the St. Clare Catholic Services food pantry. It will be located on the church grounds. They are looking for volunteers to manage the raised bed garden (an hour a night a couple times a week) to pull any weeds and check on the condition of the plants. It would be a very minor labor with a great reward. This would be a great project for scout groups, children, etc to learn about plants and the value of helping others. Please call 636-486-8081 to sign up for any evening.

St. Clare Catholic Services hosts a food pantry the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month from 3-5PM at St. Clare Catholic Church.
