Volunteer Appreciation BBQ & Fundraiser Success!
Our end-of-summer BBQ fundraiser was a huge success! We had an amazing turnout of 60+ guests who enjoyed the activities, games, prizes, and outdoor fun, helping us exceed our fundraising goal of $1500, reaching a grand total of $1538.00 in donations. We put that money straight to work and made some key infrastructure improvements to our fish waste-water recovery system as well as purchasing much needed supplies such as: pruners, nutrients, grow media, new scales & metres, food packaging, etc. Thanks to all of our supporters, pledgors, volunteers & directors who joined to "make the world a better place, one salad at a time!"
