With visits to food shelves on the rise, LEC has been in contact with our local food shelves and food recovery program to discuss what needs we can help meet over the winter months.
To that end, we have started trays of micro-greens and will also be growing spinach, lettuce, and other produce that can be grown indoors under grow lights to donate to our partners...
