Fresh organic vegetables grown by local farmers are available for this Thanksgiving meal at Wonderland Gardens.

The nonprofit garden on Rainbow Drive in Decatur is taking orders now for collards, mustard, kale, turnips and sweet potatoes from Oaktree Farms for delivery before Nov. 24.

It is also offering homemade chow chow, pepper sauce and Spicy Tomato Jelly, made by garden founder Sheldon Fleming.

Proceeds benefit the School Garden Initiative sponsored by Wonderland Gardens and the Organization of DeKalb Educators, which is working to put gardens into local schools to help fight diet-related conditions like obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes among children.

Funds raised will support school gardens at Knollwood, Glen Haven, , Toney, Rowland, Towers and Miller Grove elementaries and Bethune Middle schools.

Christmas and New Year’s vegetables will also be available. For more information, visit www.wonderlandgardens.org or call 404-286-6163, Ext. 1.
