SHARE THE HARVESTWhen you’re planting your garden please consider dedicating a row or two for vegetables to be donated to the Thompson Senior Center. Even if you have a little extra that you’re afraid will go to waste, we can use it. By sharing your harvest, you help provide Chef Ryan with fresh, seasonal, local produce for our daily luncheon and Meals on Wheels Programs. Your donation helps to provide good nutrition to our patrons and helps with the food budget. The Thompson serves over 20,000 delicious, nutritious meals each year so every bit helps! THANK YOU to each of our 2012 Share the Harvest contributors! The harvest donated last year was included in at least 100 of the daily menus for a period of five months!! Please see the special section of our newsletter on page 11 titled IN APPRECIATION each month for Share the Harvest contributors.

An Evening At The Thompson with Rick Libbey, “The MooseMan” Tuesday, July 30, 2013 5:30 Dinner 6:30 Presentation Enjoy an evening with New England’s premier photographer of moose wildlife, who chronicles their behavior with stunning pictures in their natural habitat. In his own words, “My approach is quite unique, I choose to work from a kayak rather than be married to a tripod. After years of working from a canoe, I finally figured it out. I work from a monopod and use wind direction to increase my chance at success. My love of moose and loons has evolved to a place of respect for them. By educating myself on their habits and tendencies I have found a way to work with them peaceably and I simply love it when I get the job done without disturbing them from feeding. When I am out there in the wilderness with the moose and the other wildlife, I feel it deep inside of me. It is what I am supposed to be doing.” Dinner Menu: Spinach & Strawberry Salad, Chicken Prosciutto Marsala with pasta, and carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Cost: $15.00 Advance registration required.
