Feeding the hungry can seem like an overwhelming and never-ending task, but one Fayetteville nonprofit has taken on the challenge.
âFood insecurity is widespread across our community,â said Kelton Hays, executive director of The Cobblestone Project, a nonprofit farm focused on hunger relief through sustainable agriculture. âEvery single person knows somebody or has come into contact with somebody who is food insecure. Something like 1 in 6 adults and 1 in 4 children in Arkansas are considered food insecure.â
Itâs a problem that doesnât know race, or ethnicity or even socio-economic status. More than ever, 2020 brought to light just how many Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Those who are interested in this pantry must have room in their trunk for the items as volunteers will not make room. Remain parked while receiving food until a volunteer releases you.

With its pastor retiring, the congregation and board of directors of a Ham Lake church have voted to become part of the larger Eagle Brook Church.
The announcement that Horizons Church will become an Eagle Brook campus was made at both churches during Sunday services, and leaders of both congregations said the transition could be complete as soon as Easter weekend in April.
Horizons is a church that shares our DNA, they share our mission to reach people for Christ, said the Rev. Jason Strand during his sermon Sunday. They share many of our values.
