PREECEVILLE - The annual veggie exchange was another success as garden producers shared extra vegetables with their fellow gardeners. The program was sponsored by the Preeceville and District Ministerial Association with produce dropped off from September 28-30 at three separate locations.

"Gardeners were encouraged to exchange extra vegetables with others who were short of something," said Miles Russell. "There were quite a few individuals that took part in the exchange with some vegetables left over," he said.

Produce was dropped off at three sites: the Anglican Church in Endeavour; the Lutheran Church garage in Preeceville, and the United Church hall in Sturgis.

Vegetables included tomatoes, potatoes, beets, assorted melons, pumpkins and spaghetti squash

The leftover produce was donated to local organizations in Preeceville and Sturgis.
