Rolling Ridge is proud to host the South Church Giving Garden, an half-acre organic garden growing fresh fruits and vegetables for those facing food insecurity in the Greater Lawrence area. The garden is coordinated by South Church in Andover and represents a powerful collaboration between faith, community volunteers, and sustainable agriculture.
Each year, hundreds of dedicated volunteers come together on our grounds to grow over 10,000 pounds of fresh, nutritious produce. An incredible 90% of this harvest is donated to local food pantries and shelters, while the remaining 10% is served farm-to-table to guests at Rolling Ridge.
The Giving Garden warmly invites individuals to volunteer and contribute their time and energy to our mission. Individual volunteers can make a meaningful impact by dedicating a few hours or an entire growing season to our community garden. Additionally, groups such as corporate teams, schools, churches, and families can schedule group volunteer opportunities as part of a service day or community event.
