Eat Refreshed Get Growin Picture
​In one month this past summer, I saved $180 by doing one single thing. Gardening. From July 7, 2016 to August 7, 2016, my family and I harvested cucumbers, zucchini, lettuce, tomatoes, green beans, sugar snap peas, onions and potatoes from our family garden. After weighing and measuring everything we harvested, and then quantifying
those measurements into prices, I was surprised to see how much we saved - nearly $200.

Collective impact

3/1/2017

​Collaboration is a term tossed around community tables and
within organizations with ease, because at the root, we know
it’s the right thing to do…and if we are dealing with limited
resources it may desperation to survive that forces you to the
table initially, but it’s the collective impact that keeps you
there. Could we impact with greater strength if we explore
what collaboration in the form of collective impact looks like,
feels like, and offers communities who dare to go beyond
collaboration?
