Research continues to show that spending time outdoors can help reduce stress, improve mood, increase focus, and support overall wellbeing.

The good news? You don't need a wilderness adventure to experience the benefits.

A walk around the block.
Time in the garden.
A bike ride.
Sitting in the sun with your morning coffee.

Small moments in nature can have a big impact on how we feel.

The families we serve frequently request dairy products, which unfortunately are among the least donated items. Donations of wholesome dairy foods such as milk, cheese, and yogurt would greatly benefit our neighbors facing food insecurity.
Donations can be dropped off between 10 am - 3 pm Tuesday thru Friday.
