Basin's Backyard Garden project started off as a garden at Basin Electric's Headquarters. It was tended by a group of employee volunteers who worked on their breaks, lunch hours, and after work. The project has evolved and today Basin's Backyard Garden is "homegrown," meaning employees now bring produce from their own gardens at home to be donated to those in need.

Aug. 2 marked the first day in 2022 that the Basin's Backyard Garden donation was totally homegrown.
Gardeners donated 7.4 pounds of rhubarb, cucumbers, and peas.
This week, a bag of garden lettuce was donated by an employee, and the rest of the local veggie haul was purchased from local farmers.
Basin's Backyard Garden is going #HomeGrown again in 2022.
