GARDEN WORK PARTIES AT THE VILLAGE |
|
|
| Did you know we have a garden at the village? One of our die-hard volunteers Jill Severn (pictured) has worked extremely hard on our garden with a group of residents. They've planted everything from corn and spinach to squash and jalapenos. Garden work can be extremely beneficial and therapeutic. It also builds community and food security for those who have had limited access to both throughout their lives. |

They will be working with us through the 2019-2020 school year and we are so grateful to have them with us! Welcome Eli to the team! |

As always, thank you to each and every one of you. This village grew from an amazing supportive group of people who believed that everyone deserves to have safe and affordable housing. We are extremely thankful to be able to provide housing and support to those who need it. THANK YOU! We hope you all have a wonderful end to your summer! |
