Growing Healthy: The Fruitful Vine Garden
Located on the grounds of Westview Church in Waukee, The Fruitful Vine Garden was started in 2009 with the goal of providing fresh produce to clients of the WACS Food Pantry. The garden is a collaborative effort of volunteers, including individuals, families, community groups, and members of the Dallas County Master Gardeners Program. We take pride in growing a variety of chemical-free produce onsite.
- Tomatoes
- Peppers
- Eggplant
- Beets
- Beans
- Cucumbers
How to Receive Assistance
During the growing season, registered clients are eligible to visit the garden once a week to receive a “share” of fresh produce based on family size and availability. In order to visit the garden for fresh produce, clients must show a seasonal garden card, provided at check-in at the Food Pantry.
