HARDIN COUNTY __ A few years ago, the Hardin County OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers were looking for a way to provide outreach to the county and provide not only educational direction, but also meet the needs of a community that had residents who were needing assistance with their own food production and availability for their families. Enter a statewide program, Grow Ohio. Grow Ohio’s goals included producing fruits and vegetables, providing education, and making produce available to needy families in the counties throughout the state. 

This produce could be produced locally by OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers in their own gardens, educational demonstration gardens or through community gardening efforts where gleaning was practiced. This produce would then be made available to local charities to distribute to families throughout the county to meet the food needs of those less fortunate.
