GardenShare team helps out at Campus Kitchens

Yesterday afternoon and evening, volunteers from GardenShare helped out at Campus Kitchens.  This SLU student run project provides a free meal to area residents every Monday evening at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Canton.

While student run, Campus Kitchens is committed to being there every Monday, so that people who might need that assistance can count on it.  That means that, when the students are on break, community volunteers are needed to fill in the gap.

Thanks to Brianna and Carol who helped cook the meal - a chicken and broccoli casserole - and to Mark and Carlene who set up the tables and chairs at the church.  And thanks to Pat, who joined me at the church to serve the food and clean up afterwards.  All of these jobs would usually have more volunteers involved, so the team that came out worked hard!

It was hot and we were tired, but thirty or so people went home after a healthy and hearty meal, so it was worth all of that hard work!
