A unique fundraising effort between the Dauphin Chapter’s Habitat for Humanity and Vermillion Growers involves growing pumpkins.
Lucky Deschauer, from Vermillion Growers, has been making plans with Rodney Juba from Habitat, about growing and selling pumpkins in support of raising money for the organization’s second home build.
“I think there is a market for it coming up, of course September/October as we get closer into that season. There is enough volume there that can make a difference. We don’t really have a business strategy in place at this point for it.”
Planning for this project is underway and if you want to contribute, you are encouraged to get a hold of either Deschauer or Juba.
