🐄🍕 LET'S GET A ROOF ON THAT ROUND BARN!! 🏠🔨

Good news story to take you into your weekend:

Sonoma County came together like no other after the Tubbs Fire.

Working through tremendous challenges and moving the recovery and rebuild forward in nearly record time.

Today, construction is just about complete on a new park (never existed before) with a brand new playground in downtown Larkfield. This project is 100% neighbor organized. The entire park has been led by the good and tenacious work of the Mark West Area Community Fund and the Mark West Area Municipal Advisory Council (along with hundreds of generous neighbors).

This is what community is all about. Grand opening soon - stay tuned. Congrats!

Need food assistance? We’re here to help.

These two food distribution sites can accomodate more families:

> Santa Rosa Veterans Memorial Building – 1351 Maple Ave, Santa Rosa | Every Thursday | 3:30 PM – 5:00 PM

Both locations provide fresh produce, pantry staples, and proteins—no appointment needed.

Looking for a different day, time, or location?
We have over 300 food distribution sites throughout Sonoma, Lake, Mendocino, Humboldt, and Del Norte Counties—so one is bound to be near you!

Ever heard of an Honor Flight?

The Honor Flight Network is a nationwide organization that flies veterans to their respective war memorials. Since its inception in 2005, the organization has flown over 317,000 veterans to their memorials and back.

This year, our local chapter flight returns from Washington DC on October 15th and we need you to give these veterans they welcome home they deserve! Let's line Airport boulevard with signs, horns, and dozens of waving American flags. If you're interested in joining the cheering masses or helping out with the mission, hit the link below for more information!
