Stakeholders
Stakeholders are individuals that are unable to make it to the garden but are equally invested in the success of the garden. Stakeholders are not involved in the day-to-day upkeep of the garden. Their support is based on monthly dues and contributions. Stakeholders receive fruit, eggs and vegetables from the garden throughout the month. However, they are not required to help out in the garden.
