Thanks to Abby who donated farm fresh eggs from her pet chickens! Her mom says, “She’s learning about caretaking animals, as well as the importance of community.” 🩷

Thanks to our volunteers - Dawn, Randi, Sandra & Shona - who gave their time and energy to make 36 perogie casseroles and 19 Shepherd’s Pies for the Lake Country Community Fridge.🩷 The food will be slowly dispersed over the coming weeks into the community fridge for community members in need to enjoy. Thank you for making Lake Country a warmer, kinder place!
