Hey, Wylde Plot Holders!
Fun and exciting project! We're working with a B Corporation called Small Axe Peppers this year to support their mission while simultaneously raising some funds for Wylde Center. The basic idea is they donate pepper seeds to community gardens like ours, gardeners like you grow the peppers, then we collect as much or as little of your harvest as you're willing to give so we can sell them back to Small Axe for their hot sauce. The proceeds would go right back into Wylde Center programming and greenspace upkeep. It's a win/win/win!
All that said, we did the sprouting work in our nursery and we now have 51 FREE plants to distribute to our plot holders. If you would like to participate, please fill out this short google form:
The form will close on Friday, 5/14, then I will deliver your plants straight to your plots the following week. You may request multiple plants if you'd like. It will be first come first serve and I will let you know if/when all plants are claimed. Anything unclaimed will go into our plant sale.
As for the harvest, we'll lead a drive sometime in October (exact dates TBD). Again, you will be able to donate a few or as many peppers as you like... you can even keep them all if you want. There's no obligation.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you
