During the event, Burks honored the Sunrise Rotary Club, Cop- per Creek Mercantile, Corban University and Livingstone Ad- ventist Academy students who come out to help, and several individual donors who have kept the garden going. Kathy Whittam was honored as a charter member of the garden for her efforts in getting it off the ground. Last year, a multitude of vol- unteer efforts resulted in 15 new beds, a new fence, pergola and toolshed. Whittam is now one of the largest gardens in MPFS’s network of 63 com- munity gardens. Burks said she is planning more fl owers next year to attract pollinators. MPFS also helps those re- ceiving assistance start their own gardens with soil, fertilizer, seeds, plant starts, compost and support. “MPFS doesn’t just hand out a food box. They teach and they educate,” Burks said. “It is an amazing opportunity. I would encourage anyone to volunteer, because besides helping people you come away with a lot more than you put in.” Come join us for an Indoor Air Quality WORKSHOP HOSTED BY Clean Energy Comfort Heating & Air Conditioning 3816 RIVER RD N, KEIZER Saturday, October 8 10 am to 11am This FREE community workshop is open to anyone interested in learning more about the importance of good indoor air quality and the benefits of healthy air in their own home.
