Check out the amazing work our Member is doing! Catherine is currently serving as a Confluence AmeriCorps Member with Portland Community College, Sylvania Campus as a Systems Outreach Coordinator.

Catherine’s Primary Objectives are to establish systems that supply fresh produce to students experiencing food insecurity and provide education in the Learning Garden on organic food production, planting, and sustainability.

Catherine hosted a bunch of events for Earth Week! Most were exclusive to the PCC Community, including:

- a screening of the movie GATHER and panel discussion

- Tomato plant giveaway

- Herb growing workshops

- Learning about food systems event for staff/faculty

Additionally, we were invited to attend and participate in open volunteer hours at the Learning Garden where we helped Catherine weed the garden beds and spread compost. Way to celebrate Earth Day & get things done!

Thank you for your service, Catherine! We are lucky to have you!
