Yesterday, the ASA staff pressed pause on the year-end rush to celebrate what has truly been a wonderful and successful year for the Agricultural Stewardship Association ๐ŸŒพโœจ

We also took time to honor and thank Donna Dodd-Thomas for her incredible 8 years of dedication to ASA as she prepares to retire on January 2nd. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿซถ

The day included a delicious lunch at The Olde Bryan Inn , followed by a creative afternoon at Glint Glassworks Studio in Ballston Spa, where everyone crafted their own fused glass ornaments and suncatchersโ€”each as unique as the team that made them.

Donna, we are so grateful for your care, commitment, and contribution to ASAโ€™s mission. You will be deeply missed, and we wish you all the best in your well-earned retirement! ๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸฆŒ Hunters Helping the Hungry โ€” Final Push!

๐Ÿซถ A heartfelt thank you to everyone whoโ€™s donated so far this season through Hunters Helping the Hungry. Your generosity is helping convert surplus venison into high-protein meals โ€” and feed our neighbors in need across Washington & Rensselaer Counties.

๐Ÿฒ Weโ€™re proud to say your donations make a real difference: just one deer can feed up to 200 people!

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ As you know, regular deer-hunting season ends December 7, and the last late/muzzleloader window closes on December 16.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ If your freezerโ€™s full and youโ€™d like to help turn venison into meals for neighbors in need โ€” nowโ€™s the perfect moment.

๐Ÿงก Donate through ASA's Hunters Helping the Hungry and give more than just venison: give hope, warmth, and community support.

๐ŸฆŒSimply drop off the deer at your nearest processor, give us a call to let us know, and we do the rest!

๐Ÿ‘‰ Here's how: https://www.agstewardship.org/blog/Hunters-Helping-the-Hungry-Venison-Donation-Program-1144-blog.htm

๐ŸฆŒ Every deer counts, and just a few more donations could make a big impact in local food banks before the season ends. Letโ€™s finish strong โ€” and help our community stay fed this winter.

๐Ÿค A BIG thank you to the Upper Hudson River Valley Branch - National Deer Association and the Washington County Federation of Sportsman for helping to make this important program possible! ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’›
