Cabbage Harvesting
Last
Thursday, Buzz Durham and Rick Philipsen traveled to Anthony's farm for
the third cabbage harvest. More than 200 heads found their way back to
town and about 50 heads remained for the Leicester Welcome Table to harvest as needed. Cabbages were delivered to GO Ready Kitchen, Loving Food Resources, East Side Community Welcome Table (Grosse UMC) and the Veterans Restoration Quarters. At
every location they were greeted with high fives, fist bumping, hugs,
and well wishes for the New Year. Amazing how a few cabbage can give
such a feeling of well-being and happiness! Turns out our desire to give
to others starts when we are toddlers-- NPR News Hour reported research
on how giving to others, investing in others is one ticket to our well-being and happiness. Click here for the full report.
