At the Feb 16 Luncheon at Shadowbrook, Tunkhannock Rotarian Jodi Crimmel provided an update on a program in Haiti to which the Club had donated $10,000 towards the purchase of a John Deere Tractor for the Mango Community Family Farm.
Jodi was at the Farm when the tractor arrived, and they held a ribbon cutting ceremony with the local Cap Haitien Rotary representatives, Ellen Schreder from the Brooklyn Center Rotary and Jodi representing Tunkhannock Rotary. The 3 clubs worked together to make this purchase for use on this Community Farm and for use, for a small fee, by other local farmers.
