September 28, 2022St. Bernard’s Care for Creation team has been awarded a grant from the Catholic Climate Covenant to build and supply a small garden that could be used to support local food pantries and educate parish families about the importance of taking care of our environment.
The Victory Noll Small Grant is for $400.
“We hope this modest funding helps you build a local network to better care for our common home,” said Jose Aguto, the executive director of Catholic Climate Covenant.
The grant will enable the group to start planning for a small 8- foot by 4-foot garden.
“We were delighted to find out that we were awarded the grant,” said Ben Roden of the team. “While we wouldn’t plant until next season, we perhaps could install the bed this fall, if we have a suitable location.”
He said a possible location would be the green space next to the parish office.
