If you enjoy gardening or spending time outdoors, please consider volunteering in our garden. There is always something that needs done in the garden.
If you are interested, contact Peggy Wissmueller at 417-619-4726 or Lori Ross at 417-227-0576.
If you have a garden and extra produce, you are welcome to leave it in the kiosk at Hovey House, 800 W. Hovey St. I guarantee that the produce will be picked up and used quickly.
Grant Beach’s community garden was renamed Richard’s Roots in memory of Richard Napieralski, who passed away in August 2019.
“Richard was an avid gardener (his entire backyard was a garden). Richard also helped establish the Grant Beach produce distribution, which provided fruits and vegetables to those who signed up. Richard had been a member of the Grant Beach Neighborhood Association for over a decade, having served as our treasurer many years ago,” said Grant Beach Neighborhood Association Vice President Kathy Lutz.
