Using Lake Weeds To Fight Hunger

Using lake weeds for mulch
We’re fighting hunger with your lake weeds.
Waterfront Restoration is working with The Donation Garden in Long Lake who also works with WeCan- a nonprofit 501(c)4 organization. Their mission is to empower and equip individuals and families to reach stability and self-sufficiency.
The removed lakeweeds work as fertilizer and mulch for their gardens. As a result, the garden donates the vegetables our weeds help produce to Meals on Wheels, food shelves, and senior citizens.
