Come celebrate Local Food Week with us on Wed. June 12 from 10 am to Noon as we do a tour of our The Welcome Table GardenPark and Orchard, 6005 N. Johnstown Ave., with Dr. Bonnie Ashing, M.D., gardenpark director, and talk about the poor food choices and health inequality in our zipcode with a 14 year lower life expectancy than the highest zipcode in midtown Tulsa. There will be a free lunch then at Noon across the street at the Turley United Methodist Church.
During the same time we begin our new hours for the Free Corner Store at our Welcome Table Community Center, 5920 N. Owasso Ave., from 10 am to Noon every Wednesday and Saturday as we expand days to meet the growing hunger in our area and rising use of our food resources here.
We need volunteers of all ages at both the GardenPark and Orchard and at the Community Center for the Food Corner Store, the Clothing and More Store, and our other projects at the Center and in the Community.
