Foster Farmers of the Neighborhood

 

​Beacon Hill Garden Club is gearing up for Garden Share during Beacon Arts Street Fairs four Saturdays this season beginning May 9, 2026. Club members and our neighbors will share their extra seeds, bedding plants and veggie starts. This free effort to aid food security and help beautify our neighborhood distributed over 7,000 plants and uncounted seeds to neighbors who were eager to learn about growing food.

​

To make sure we have enough plants this year, we are inviting folks to become “Foster Farmers” and raise a few extra veggie starts for the Garden Shares. Grow your own and bring the extras to swap or share at the Garden Shares May 9, June 13, August 8 and September 12, 2026. To become a Foster Farmer fill out our online form to get started. Experienced gardeners who start their own, are encouraged to bring any extra “orphans plants” to any Garden Share. Email us if  we can help with supplies and seeds.
