I am so jealous! There is no gleaners here. When we moved in, it was one thing that I was looking for right away because our income took a nose dive due to living in a "lower cost of living" area. Ha! Groceries are just as expensive on either side of the mountains.
I am so happy for you. What a blessing!
Oh, which one do you participate in? My cousing Jori has been involved for years, I believe with Lake Stevens, not sure. :)
Jennifer,
You should start one...it has been such a blessing to our family...I would think that there are other families around you that could really use this as well.
We are part of what used to be called Evergreen Gleaning Association...Jori...I recently met a gal named Jori who is part of another Gleaning team, but there team passes on to ours...she lives in Everett...I wonder if it was the same gal.

I'm sure it is, she does live in Everett. She has five children, lots of them are quite grown up now. She's a very sweet lady, knows so much. She's the first person that I ever talked about homeschooling with.
I should start one. In my spare time, right!!!? :)
