We have a BIG goal this year — help feed 4,000 people a holiday meal, provide winter essentials, and give toys to 250 families!

For this specific delivery, Chef Cheryl asked for a series of mushrooms for their vegetarian meals including: baby Bella, oyster and Lions Mane. One of our volunteers named Rudy was able to forage 2 lbs of fresh Lions mane and we completed the order with 3 more lbs from mom’s organic.

Chef Brian will be using oyster mushrooms and Lions mane for their vegetarian sandwiches as they accommodate a variety of food choices for their guests.
