*No regular meeting* - service project for Matthew 25

In partnership with Matthew 25, Metro North Rotarian's will be installing educational signs at Matthew 25’s Cultivate Hope Urban Farm. The planned objective of the signs is to educate the at-risk children and youth who participate in the programs at the farm, as well as community members who utilize the farm.The project will affect and improve the lives of the community through education and beautification. Founded in 2012, the Cultivate Hope Urban Farm was built on land where houses had been demolished after the flood of 2008. Matthew 25’s leaders saw an opportunity to grow food for the neighborhood on this land, and “cultivate hope” for a brighter, healthier tomorrow.

Please meet at the farm at 437 G Ave NW (between F & G Ave) at 11:30 am.
