SLIDESHOW: Most of the meals at Harbor House, a residential arm of the Salvation Army, are made from donated canned goods. But this fall, residents will enjoy a menu that includes fresh tomatoes, cabbage and strawberries, thanks to a new garden the residents planted.

Maj. K. Kendall Mathews, regional coordinator for the Salvation Army, said he hopes the garden teaches residents the value of taking advantage of natural resources, as well as taking an active role in improving their physical health.
