Join us for our 2nd Annual Wrangell Community Garden Harvest Fair, this Saturday, August 28th from 10 am to 2pm at the Wrangell High School commons.
All proceeds will go towards furthering the Wrangell Community Garden efforts.
Starting before 10 am, kind-hearted individuals are encouraged to donate vegetables, fruits, baked goods, foraged/gathered items that will be available for others to purchase through donations. All these items will be submitted for the "Best of __" judging, with categories including: "Biggest", "Most Colorful", "Oddball", and "Best in Show". Remember to bring a bag for the goodies you take away with you.
A soup and stew contest will begin judging at 11 am with a surprise Wrangell celebrity panel, and all soups/stews entered will be served to the public beginning at noon. To submit a soup/stew, arrive with serving utensil and soup/stew before 11 am. To enjoy the bounty of the soups/stews, bring your own eating container and receive unlimited refills for $2, or purchase a container for $3 at the event.
Booths will abound at the event with a little bit of everything:
A Kids' Corner booth will be set up to keep the little ones entertained while teaching them about harvesting.
Expect a Wrangell Community Garden booth with slideshows from our past year, information on how to garden in Southeast Alaska and how to apply for a garden next year.
Traditional foods booth will exhibit how to forage/gather/hunt for your harvest year round.
If you are interested in learning more or learning how to donate goods or to submit a soup/stew for judging, contact Kris Reed at (907) 305-0258.
