May’s theme is a Seed Drive — “Give a Plant” Bring a plant or seeds to donate to our community garden. (Pepper, tomato, cucumber, squash, etc.)

St. Matthew’s will also be planting our Community Garden, which provides fresh produce for our Open Table (free meals the last Sunday of the month) and neighboring pantries, so consider donating a vegetable plant if you’re able.

Dinner will be available from 5-7pm through the Church kitchen, with proceeds supporting the ministries of St. Matthew’s. We’d love for you to share a meal with us and enjoy the market while you’re here.

Thank you for supporting local businesses and your local church. Your presence strengthens our community.
