The Mission of the Healthy Community Alliance of East Central Indiana is to improve the health and well-being of the communities we serve.
Your extra Garden Produce can make a difference to our neighbors in need!
The purpose of "Grow-A-Row" is to encourage our communities to plant, grow, harvest and donate an extra row of produce or surplus crops to local organizations such as food pantries, soup kitchens and social service providers.
The 2024 Grow-A-Row campaign is brought to you by the HCA Food Council of ECI
and Nutrition Workgroup, Purdue Extension, Indiana University Health and the Muncie Food Hub Partnership.
