Description

Join us at Green St. Louis Machine, a greenhouse in St. Louis City. We will be harvesting greens and herbs grown on hydroponic towers. Along with other, hydroponic and greenhouse maintenance tasks with other allotted time. This is a great opportunity to learn about hydroponic produce production in the area. 

Gleaning is harvesting crops from the farm that would otherwise go unused and donating them to individuals and families within Operation Food Search's network of food pantries.
