Engaging people in the suburbs

Foodshare's administrative assistant to the operations department, Cindy Huk, set up a booth at the Ellington Farmer's Market this past weekend.  She lives in Ellington and undertook this on her own time to educate her neighbors about Foodshare's work in the region.  She reported back this morning:

"What a beautiful day at the Ellington Farmers Market!  I was pleased at the number of people who stopped at my booth to ask questions.  The range of interest went from our new Ellington Mobile to volunteering to general interest in who we are and what we do.  A few people already help at some of our partner agencies close by and stopped to share stories of how much we help them!


"Thanks to our 'Staff Photographer,' Vinh, who also stopped by."
