And our sincere gratitude to the fabulous staff and volunteers from both Boulder Mountain Clayworks and the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood for working together to help put wholesome food on the tables of local children and adults!

Boulder Mountain Clayworks hosted special "bowl making" sessions at their Ketchum studio to create more than 300 beautiful, handmade and hand painted ceramic bowls available for purchase at this remarkable community fundraiser.  With the help of local artisans, staff, and community members, they raised nearly $4,000 to help feed local families experiencing hunger!
