Happy National Volunteer Week to my amazing Master Food Preserver volunteers! I love getting to work alongside these dedicated volunteers who share their knowledge and experience with our communities by offering workshops, doing tabling events at Farmers Market, libraries, youth centers, and even just out and about in their daily activities! You all hold a special place in my heart and I couldn't do this job without you! Sincerely, your appreciative coordinator Sam
