Rows for the Hungry.

Rows for the Hungry is a legacy donation garden located at the EARTH Center in South Brunswick, NJ. The primary objective is to increase fresh food donations to local distribution groups in Middlesex County while creating a comprehensive hands on training experience for volunteers to teach community members how to grow their own food.
