 Towne's Harvest Community Garden The Towne's Harvest Garden is a project of the MSU Friends of Local Foods Student Group. This summer MSU and the Gallatin Valley Food Bank are teaming up with Friends of Local Food to support a 2-acre diversified vegetable farm. This farm will produce vegetables and offers a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Program. Last year, this partnership netted the Food Bank more than 6,000 pounds of fresh, locally grown produce for distribution in our emergency food assistance program.
