The Lewes Community Garden announced it has welcomed Teach a Person to Fish Society into its family.
Founded by co-directors Teresa and Cass Ripley, Teach a Person to Fish Society is a Sussex County nonprofit whose mission is to provide fresh produce to local food bank outlets. Tackling food insecurity in Sussex County – which was greatly exacerbated by the pandemic – has been the society’s first priority.
