GRO: Community Garden Project
The mission of the GRO: Community Garden Project is to create a space that not only yields a harvest but grows as a space to be used for gathering. An outdoor classroom for Sabattus Recreation Garden Club members, the staff, and students of Sabattus Primary School, and a gathering space for community members to share. A safe place to grow empathy, compassion, and sustainability in our community.
