The need for help with food is again on the increase. Our demand is up about 30% from a year ago.

This week we were able to distribute over 700 prepared, nutritious meals to families and partners across Cape Cod.

Picture below is just one example. This was last night at our weekly meal distribution in Hyannis at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center. We are normally there from 4:30 - 5:30. Last night the line was so long, our volunteer team continued until 6pm.

We don't see these kind of numbers and long line of cars unless it is Thanksgiving.

Amazing. A bit frightening. Glad we can provide the help.

The beloved children’s book Miss Rumphius was inspired by a real woman named Hilda Edwards Hamlin, an English-born resident of Christmas Cove, Maine, who spent decades quietly scattering lupine seeds along roadsides and fields. Beginning in the mid-20th century, Hamlin carried seeds in her pockets and tossed them wherever she walked, helping create the spectacular displays of purple, pink, and blue lupines that have become a symbol of Maine in early summer. Barbara Cooney later used Hamlin as the inspiration for her award-winning 1982 book, whose central message—“You must do something to make the world more beautiful”—continues to resonate with generations of readers.
