COVID-19 & CULTIVATING CONNECTIONS
JUNE 2020
Pleasant Ridge Grange ordered seed from Winona Grange in Tualatin, Oregon with the intent to provide seeds for community gardens and other groups that offer fresh produce for needy families. Due to Covid-19 and the dangers of having people congregate, we decided to distribute the seeds to families in need. We partnered with the Notus FFA and created bags with coloring pages and seeds to distribute to students of the Notus School District. Grange member and employee of Idaho Preferred, Megan Harper, put seed-packets and recipe cards in bags, the Notus FFA members put in coloring sheets and a pencil. These packets provide an extra active learning opportunity for students who are learning at home as well as fresh produce for growing minds.
