Goodbye 2020, hello 2021!

In the face of so many challenges, last year was an incredibly relevant year for Neighbors Nourishing Communities. It was a reminder of why we do the work we do. We nearly doubled the number of registered gardeners and for the 7th straight year we increased the amount of donated produce, reaching 4,776 lbs donated!

We could not have done it without some outstanding volunteer gardeners.

So without futher ado, here are the 2020 winners:

Golden Trowel Award, our new member that donated the most:

Jane VanKuren of Sherwood, OR

Rusty Trowel Award, our veteran member that donated the most:

Jo Hibbits of Tualatin, OR

Sod Buster Award, the business that grew and donated the most produce:

Tualatin Park Veterinary Clinic, Tualatin, OR

Hoe Lot of Support Award the institution that grew and donated the most produce:

Hilltop Community Garden, Tualatin, OR

Thank you to all our gardeners that made 2020 a special year and showed the power of neighbors nourishing their communities!
