Here in Brookings, Oregon, many volunteers and churches have joined to provide access to healthy food specifically for the homeless who are served daily. Suzy Collins, a volunteer with the Brookings Community Garden, talks about how on “any day of the week a person can get a hot meal.” This is thanks to the willingness of churches who provide daily meals, and a more recent collaboration of churches and local groups creating a Community Garden that grows the nourishing ingredients for the local food kitchens, with what’s left over going to the Food Bank for distribution. The numbers of those served are remarkable.
Listen as Host Karin Larsen learns from the effervescent Suzy Collins how she came to be part of helping move “seeds to tables” in our town.
