A heartfelt thank you to Keith Shiner, The Shiitake Project, and everyone who came out to Concert in the Trees last weekend!
We’re so grateful for your continued support of SIRCH and for everyone who attended, donated and helped make the evening such a success.
What an amazing community we have!Well folks that was a cold rainy Concert in the Trees! Thanks for those who braved the elements.
So far between money collected on the water and those who have donated online at SIRCH, we are at about $1200!!!
We are still accepting donations. Please use the drop down and select Concert in the Trees so we can track it.

☀️ 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐂𝐇!
Next in our Summer Staff Spotlight series is 𝐄𝐦𝐦𝐚 𝐇𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧, one of our dedicated School’s Cool instructors.
Emma is currently studying Early Childhood Education and hopes to become a classroom teacher. Throughout the summer, she has brought patience, enthusiasm, and genuine care to the children in School’s Cool, helping them build confidence and prepare for the classroom in September.
In Emma's words:

𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐀 𝐑𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠!
Fresh produce is beginning to arrive, and we’re on track for a wonderful growing season.
A big thank you to our volunteer growers who are already bringing in their harvests for SIRCH’s Food Security Programs. Every zucchini, bean and bundle of greens helps us prepare nutritious meals for people in our community.
There is still plenty more growing and we can’t wait to see what the rest of the season brings!
