Update #1: THANKS and an UPDATE!!
Hello!
Thank you to all our generous donors who have contributed so far! We have made great strides in the last few weeks getting over half way to our goal of $3,000. We appreciate your support and hope that you will continue to help get the word out.
Last weekend the ACRE staff went to visit Steuben, Wisconsin, the site of this year’s residency specifically to meet with the local farmers and Amish communities. We met a lot of great people and are excited to work with them in providing the food for our residents this year.
Thanks again!

Is there still a way to donate through this site? I can't seem to find the link.
