As a service project, the brothers of Phi Mu Delta fraternity clear the plants on Oct. 29 from the Village Garden which is run by ReStore so that some people can grow some of their own food.

Families from China and Bangladesh, who now live in Ada, as well as those born and raised here took advantage of the free plots of land this year, according to Karen Ward who has been coordinator of the ReStore project for several years.

Chad Hazelton donated a load of manure to work into the soil for future plant growth. Winter comes, the garden must be cleared for a new beginning in the spring.
