Operation Nourish: Seed Starters Virtual Event with SSCAN (May 18-Jun 20, 2020)

Columbus OH Platoon

Event overview

**This is an ongoing event that runs from May 18-Jun 20** During this time of social distancing The Mission Continues wants to keep everyone safe while helping the community through this low contact service project. We invite you to pick up a seed starter kit and seeds to start plants for the community garden in the South of Columbus for the community gardens located at 1200 and 1269 Wilson Ave. We want to support the SSCAN community gardens by planting seeds then delivering the new plants so they can be planted and help this Southside community group thrive! Seed starters and seeds can be picked up in a social distant fashion any time during the event dates. Once you register, you will receive a follow-up email with material pickup locations, instructions on growing and who to contact when the seedlings are ready for delivery. We will also have a virtual Zoom event on June 20th, 2020 at 11am so everyone can get together and show off their plants or help volunteers who just picked up their kits.

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
