Thinking holidays? Consider new gifting strategies

We’re sharing this Black Farmer piece because it is so thoughtful … sweet potato pie and other fresh-from-the-garden foods.  As we are all rushing to do our holiday shopping, we urge you to remember charitable organizations that operate bake sales and one-of-a-kind homemade gift items.  This story will bring memories back to many of our readers.
