New research shows that some mothers living on low-incomes in Peterborough are eating the least, last and less often in an effort to ensure there is enough food for their children.
Peterborough's community garden movement is thriving! Did you know that we currently have 43 community gardens across Peterborough County & City? This is the highest number of community gardens per capita in the country! Many of them are located on public property, and you can check our map if you'd like to make plans to visit a few of them.
This spring, we are working hard to help community groups start 2 new community gardens, as well as 10 daycares to add gardens at their locations for use in their programs.
They are 13 million strong, and their numbers grow annually. Taken together, volunteers contribute over 2 billion hours every year to enrich the communities in which we live.
As we mark National Volunteer Week (April 23 to 29), we are reminded of the invaluable contribution of time, talent, energy, and skills that volunteers make every single day in communities across our region.
