Community Garden

With the assistance of Rockland County’s Cornell Cooperative Education Master Gardener program, our ‘Garden of Love’ was built in 2010. Working in collaboration with St. Ann’s Parish and Good Samaritan Hospital to create gardens, produce is grown and distributed to the needy through the Food Pantry Programs throughout the Parishes. Besides saving money, the Garden of Love helps to feed our neighbors, while teaching members of the community how to grow their own food.

Catholic Charities food pantry — Chefs from Union Restaurant in Haverstraw often do cooking demonstrations at Catholic Charities using vegetables directly from our garden to cook food for those we serve and demonstrate healthy cooking.
