We still have this pasta availbe for puchase as a to go meal. Stop in the Village Project Market and place your order.

Thank you!

Just over six years ago, we lost Mike way too soon. But we are grateful that so many have chosen to honor his memory through The Mike Bird Fund and the work we're doing to Fight Back at Cancer.

Thanks to your abundant support, we will be donating a total of $38,000 to our charitable causes this year!

🔹 Cleveland Clinic (for prostate cancer research)
🔹 Prostate Cancer Foundation
🔹 Village Project (providing meals for cancer patients and their families).

👏 A huge round of applause for EVERYONE who made this possible! 👏

🌸🎨 Flowers, Friendship and a Whole Lot of Color!
Local Girl Scout Troops 50121 and 51115—are you out there in our social media world?! We had to show off your beautiful bottle creations!

These talented Girl Scouts painted colorful bottles that are now holding some of our gorgeous flowers in full bloom.

Tonight, these lovely arrangements will be delivered alongside Village Project meals to our clients—just a little something to brighten their day. 💕

A HUGE thank-you to our volunteers who make this happen:

🍽️ Our amazing volunteers who prepared and delivered meals
🎨 The Girl Scouts who painted these flower vases
🌸 Our incredible “flower ladies” who turn the flowers into beautiful arrangements
💌 And one more special thank-you to the volunteer who makes most of our cards…thank you for always bringing the sense of humor! 😂

It truly takes a village—and we are so grateful for every person who adds a little color, kindness, and joy to our mission of feeding families fighting cancer. 💚
