Don't Forget the Oven!

It was another hectic week at Community Harvest with 98 meals to serve! The regular volunteers and directors from the Bucknell Office of Civic Engagement worked to cook a warm and healthy shepherd's pie for the main entree. We also baked homemade corn bread made from scratch.

There is the corn bread fresh out of the oven! In addition to corn bread, we also had a fresh salad with kale and carrots from the Lewisburg Community Garden. 

It took a few hours to wash all of the greens and peel the carrots, but the end result was worth it! The salad was topped with a homemade raspberry vinaigrette dressing. When it was time to serve dinner, we had volunteers from the local Methodist church and the Bucknell Women's Golf Team.  

 Our volunteers worked hard to create a delicious pear cobbler that was all ready to go- until we forgot to turn on the oven! Sometimes things don't always go as planned, but we froze the cobbler to be ready for next week! The Methodist and Golf Team volunteers also helped clean up so we are prepared to return next week!
