Dawn dropped off some good quality backpacks and other much needed school supplies. Sanford Health -MM C-Weston has collected supplies for FABFAN for the past several years. The FABFAN project had requests for over 800 backpacks. It is the most expensive item that we need to purchase so donated backpacks really help us out! Thank you, Dawn and Sanford Health employees for helping students start school with the supplies they need!

We start our volunteers at an early age! Brock and Marietta , with the help of their Grandma Jaci, sorted over 1000 backpacks into 4K, K-5 and 6-8 grade designations. No surprise that they are growing up at Granite Ridge Farms and know how to get the job done! This is their second year volunteering for FABFAN and we appreciate their hard work !
