Plot It Fresh Season 2 Kickoff Recap

🌱🌿 Plot It Fresh Season 2 Kickoff Recap 🌿

🌱 We officially kicked off Season 2 of Plot It Fresh, welcoming both new and returning members back to grow, connect, and cultivate for the 2026 season.

💚 During orientation, we shared updates, goals, and expectations—while making sure everyone left ready to plant with their seedling orders, fresh produce boxes, and a few fun garden giveaways. 🌱🍎

🌿 This year, we’re excited to grow new partnerships rooted in health and wellness—working alongside Rutgers University’s Aging & Brain Health Alliance and Great Oaks Legacy Charter School. 💚

🌱 And we didn’t stop there… Members jumped right into action over May Day weekend with a volunteer day at Healthy Haven’s 18th Ave Community Garden in Newark’s West Ward.

🤝 Partnering with Keep Newark Beautiful and local residents

🌿 Weeding, clearing beds, and preparing plots

🪴 Building a beautiful space for the 2026 growing season It was incredible to see everyone come together to restore and prepare the garden—creating a space where the community can truly thrive.

🌎✨ We’re excited for everything ahead this season—let’s grow! 🌱💚
