A Wapakoneta church is going outside and gardening with area kids for fun educational lessons during the summer months! St. Paul United Church of Christ, along with the help of over a dozen Wapakoneta kids, have built a bucket garden and recently planted a variety of vegetables ranging from tomatoes and potatoes to onions, cauliflower, corn and much more. St. Paul United Church of Christ is a site for the Ohio Summer Lunch Program, and with area youth gathering at the church for meals during summer break, church officials viewed planting and growing their own fresh produce as an opportunity to teach kids about where food comes from.
