Many Projects To Take On As Your Own
MOFGA needs volunteers to help us complete a number of projects at its Common Ground Education Center in Unity. Some involve the Fair, while others will serve MOFGA’s wider mission or reduce expenses. Some, such as developing a better greywater collection system for food vendors, need specialized equipment and labor. But many have money set aside for materials and only need volunteers. Why wait until pre-fair set-up to help? We could use the help earlier. If you would like to take on one of the following projects, please contact Vernon LeCount at the MOFGA office. Thanks!
