Julie Damore Keeps the Vegetable Garden Growing

Post Published: June 30, 2011

If Central’s Garden had a Fairy Godmother, it would be Julie.

Julie is a volunteer at Central Library who helps tend our Arlington Food Assistance Center vegetable garden.

In this photo, taken by the staff at AFAC for their newsletter, she’s holding a bouquet of broccoli and cucumbers. These fresh vegetables were harvested at Central on Wednesday morning, and taken to AFAC just in time to be put on the shelf for that morning’s clients.

You can see more delicious examples of Julie’s hard – and very important – work in our Vegetable Garden photo albums on Flickr.
