Happy Lunar New Year!
Now that the winter's days are getting longer and Punxsutawney Phil has seen his shadow, we're finally emerging from our dens too, to resume planning and preparing for next year's ambitious farming season. We see this not only as a time to rededicate ourselves to helping those in our community who live with food insecurity, but also as a time to realize how fortunate we are to have the resources to fulfill our mission. We'd like to express our deepest gratitude to all who donated in 2020. Without you, we would not be poised to achieve so much in 2021!
