From the Neighborhood House:
“Just a note to thank Lewis & Clark College for sharing the talents and enthusiasm of the group of freshmen that worked with us in the Neighborhood House Garden and Free Food Bank on Saturday. What they were able to accomplish in a half day in the Garden will allow us to plant the next crops earlier and feed more people in need of nutrition.What a joy to work with such a great bunch of young people. Thanks so much for sharing them with us…I hope we can do this again next year.”
