This Holiday Season Consider a Gift to the Medora Harvest Fund

This holiday season, please consider a gift of support to the Medora Harvest Fund.

Your contribution to the Medora Harvest Fund helps provide families in need with access to fresh, organic produce from local farms and Community Supported Agriculture. In addition, your tax-deductible contribution supports local farmers.

LESSON will use your donation to fund the purchase of a share from the farm of your choice, or for a family who you have identified.

The Medora Harvest Fund was founded in honor of Medora Cockey, an organic farming enthusiast who was an inspiration to her family, friends and the farming community.
