Hello All,
I am heading up a small relief project to assist the Wingfield community rebuild their lives after a horrendous fire took everything from them. We are hoping there might be some aging tools or packets of seeds/seedlings that could be donated. Any cash donations received will be recorded, and a recon of all purchases made with receipts will be provided to any donors. In these trying times, providing food security is all important. All human beings deserve care and to live a dignified life 🩵
