Sweet Potatoing

Please join us for a planning meeting for the 2012 Kansas City Sweet Potato Project Wednesday February 1st at Reconciliation Services 3101 Troost Ave, Kansas City Mo.

The 2012 Kansas City Sweet Potato Project is a collaborative partnership of Food Not Lawns Kansas City, Society of St Andrew West, Troost Village Community Association and Squash Blossom Food Cooperative.  

This year’s goal is to grow 10,000 lb for Harvesters and 10,000lb for the volunteers and growers.  We will start planting at the end of May and are lining up partners, volunteers and places to grow right now.  We will ask people, organization and businesses to adopt a sweet potato bed through volunteering or donations.  This is a chance to make a real difference for people and the environment in Kansas City and is going to be so much fun.

You can find out more about the project at the Kansas City Sweet Potato Project Facebook page. To volunteer or for more information contact Karin Page, SOSA West Program Coordinator at 816-921-0856 or Steve Mann 816 352-9213
