I'm so proud of them: LaToya heard about the hiring through a job developer at at Michael Barlow Center.  She told others in the class and they worked through the long (1.5 hour) online application on their lunch break, part of class, and after work.  The three ladies below brought interview clothes to work and left after harvest. They look great! --Breanne Heath, Field Training Specialist

From now thru February 2011, Growing Home will receive a $1 donation for each bottle of Campanile Pinot Grigio sold at Big Bowl restaurants throughout the city!

Big Bowl is also introducing Illinois wines to their wine list this year.

We're grateful for the support from Big Bowl, and excited that Illinois wines will be getting more table-time in the city!
