OHCC GARDEN CLUB

Just because Fall is right around the corner, doesn’t mean that your garden can’t still be full of color, texture and interest.  Next month the Garden Club will host a booth at the Fall Festival on the Palm Court; be sure to come visit us for new garden treasures.

The September 13, 2023 Garden Club meeting featured Kesha Dorsey Spoor from Coastal Roots Farm, a nonprofit Jewish community farm and education center in Encinitas, CA.  Kesha, the Farm’s Director of Philanthropy, Impact Strategy, and Communications, supports the Farm’s development and donor stewardship, leads the Farm’s communication strategy, and oversees all programs and education initiatives.  Javier Guerrero, the Farm’s President and CEO, works to advance the Farm’s impact initiatives of equitable food access, regenerative agriculture, environmental education and Jewish Life, welcoming people of all backgrounds.  Coastal Roots Farm grows more than 80,000 pounds of organic food per year, of which more than 70% is donated to San Diegans experiencing food insecurity.
