August 19 & 22
Last week, we enjoyed welcoming a new vendor to the
market! Eden Apiaries sells local honey
in a variety of flavors and sizes “From the Garden of Eden”, as well as maple
syrup. Eight Maples Farm had pears for
sale, and lamb is back at Mahoning Creek Farm!
Thanks to Texas Ted and Jenna Vendetta, with Doc
Pober, for another great performance!
First Unitarian Universalist Church of Indiana shared
ways that we can all help fight childhood hunger in Indiana County, including:
- Fill a child’s backpack with food
- Plant a row of your favorite vegetable and donate it
- Start a food drive for ICCAP or the Love Basket
- Give money or grocery cards to ICCAP or the Love Basket
- Plant seeds to create seedlings to donate to the Seedling Project
- Donate your time to harvest produce
To get involved, contact the Social Justice Project at www.firstuu-indianapa.org
Coming this week:
This Saturday, August 22, we hope you will stop by the kids’
tent for recipes and food samples and have a chat with the folks from the
Center for Community Growth.
