Please Note: Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we are taking extra precautions, including expanding our pick-up hours, staggering pick-ups as much as possible, limiting the number of volunteers, providing curb-side service, and limiting the “sale” to a simple pre-order pick-up, to eliminate gathering. We will provide updates if anything changes, and will send out our usual reminder postcards with further information.
