Gleaning Day (Oct 7, 2017)

On Saturday morning, October 7, 2017, everyone at St. Paul’s and especially all families with younger children (ages 3 through 5th grade) are invited to “glean” sweet potatoes with the Society of St. Andrew. This “Yam Jam” is very simple – we collect the sweet potatoes that remain in the fields after the farmer has harvested all that is profitable to harvest. All the food we collect goes to food banks, food pantries, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, etc. in the Triangle area. Go ahead and reserve this date and send Christine Ingram an email to be added to this interest list! We won’t know the location of our field to glean until the week of our volunteering, but it will be one hour of travel or less. This is a WONDERFUL opportunity for young children to experience outreach!!! All are welcome!
