-IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT THE FLOODING IN WESTERN WASHINGTON-
Catastrophic events like the December storm give us
pause to count our blessings and the chance to become prepared for the
unexpected. Washington has a strong food network and this is not due
to luck. Groups like Clallam Grown serve to connect the dots between
growers and consumers and this is especially important in a
geographically remote region like ours. As a community we must come
together and form this network so that if need be we will have the
ability to jump to action, to feed our neighbors and lend a helping
hand.
The Washington Farm Bureau has created a relief fund where 100% of proceeds will go to the immediate needs of farmers and ranchers hit by the storm.
The Gleaners Coalition is organizing clean up crews and is accepting donations. --------------------------------------------------------------
