Community garden in Alberton to collaborate with schools

Last year, Ang MacDonald started a community garden filled with fruit trees, tomatoes and other vegetables in Alberton after two previous failed attempts. The Alberton Railroad Days Community Garden is a nonprofit that MacDonald runs and she’s responsible for most of the work. Her long-term goal is to start a Farm to School program with Alberton, where schools feature locally produced food on their school menus.
