Noonday Farm in Winchendon receives donation
Staff report
For Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust’s 2020 Annual Appeal, supporters were given the option to add $5 to their donation that would go directly toward fighting food insecurity in the Mount Grace region.
“The pandemic has had a huge effect on all of us, between the anxiety, social isolation and loss,” said Executive Director Emma Ellsworth. “For some of us, those impacts have been magnified with additional financial devastation. This is one way the Mount Grace community has come together to help keep food on the table for all of us.”
Mount Grace received more than $500 from supporters and will be donating it equally among two organizations that Mount Grace has collaborated with in the past to conserve the land on which they now farm: Noonday Farm in Winchendon and Just Roots in Greenfield.
