My heart is filled with gratitude for the community I live in and the magic we create together! Thank you to the dozens of volunteers that gave their time to split, load and deliver more than 40 truckloads of free firewood to those in need. Extra appreciation to Matthew Cuscianna cortesearthandtimberoutlook.com plus Amanda and Howard Nielsen infoislandunited.ca for their equipment and contributions. To all the people that kept our volunteers nourished and caffeinated - thank you! Jeannie Hanuse for the salmon and bannock, Rebeka Carpenter for the Italian subs and orange cardamom rolls, Mary Lavelle and the Cortes Natural Food Co-op for the coffee.
