Re: Bluewater Highway (M-21), Shiawassee County Middlebury Township Rhubarb Stand
We want to express our appreciation to the many who stopped by to check out our rhubarb stand and support the Elsie Food Bank. Although the season this year started early, the dry spell slowed things down. Once rain returned, rhubarb was again available.
This year, the free will offering donations totaled $585.65. We saw old friends, made new friends, shared recipes and heard great rhubarb stories and memories.
We appreciate the work of the staff and volunteers of the Elsie Food Bank and their many partners working to reduce food insecurity. The Elsie Fall Festival, held Saturday, Oct. 7, is their annual fundraiser, highlighted with a great auction. Hope to see you there.
Greg and Margaret White
