Polson Seniors: Fresh pasta a plus

The Strawberry full moon is June 5 in Texas. Here, it’s mid-July, maybe.

Country Pasta of Polson is continuing their long-time support for our food program with fresh noodles that enhance our pasta recipes. Thanks to all our local business who provide goods and services in support of our mission to deliver nutritious low-cost meals to our senior citizens in need. Shop local.

Additional full or part-time staff for our food service is needed. Stop by for an application.

We are seeking additional members for our board of directors. Only one short meeting each month, usually in the a.m. of the second Friday; terms of office vary according to leadership position. Volunteer to serve the seniors in the Polson area.
