Hi Neighbors, The agency I work for, ACTION Housing, Inc. is selling cookbooks as a fundraiser. You may have seen my other emails regarding the program I am with, MyPlace who provides transitional housing for youth who have been in foster care and are homeless or at risk of homelessness. ACTION Housing provides all types of housing and homelessness services to individuals and families in Allegheny County, such as for people with disabilities, the blind and/or deaf community, seniors, and so forth. The list goes on! I'll be taking orders for cookbooks and will be able to coordinate drop off/money pick up. The cookbooks will be available after April 13th. ACTION Housing, Inc.'s Cook book - a hardback cookbook containing 180 recipes from residents at our buildings, staff and family. The proceeds benefit the Donald Noah Client Assistance Fund (which provides emergency monetary assistance for things like bus passes, Giant Eagle Gift Cards, clothing for a job interview, etc.) and the Social Service GAP Fund (which covers items that are not covered under specific grants, etc. for the residents of our buildings). So, it's a great cause and you'll get some great recipes!!! Please let me know if you would like to purchase your cookbook for only $10 and support ACTION Housing!

[Highland Park] Local Produce Delivery (CSA)
by largentine＠aol.com 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Putting the word out for another local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture); www.whocooksforyoufarm.com. Chris and Aeros, owners of the farm, have a stand at the East Liberty Market on Mondays. By subscribing to their CSA you will get a share of the produce every week from June - November. Half and whole shares available. See their site for all the details. Currently I am helping to gather enough subscribers for them so that we can have a drop off in Highland Park, the closest one is at Zeke's Coffee on Penn ave right now. If you're interested, email them (I'm just another customer trying to ensure a convenient drop off). We have loved subscribing to CSA's in all of the cities we have lived in; Chris and Aeros' mission and farm is appealing to us because it's just them, not a co-op of farmers,which provides for a much more intimate relationship. Best Regards, Lisa McDade N Sheridan
