What began as a garden full of flowers blossomed into a movement of generosity and community support. After rebuilding her home and garden post-Marshall Fire, Caitlin Hawksley found herself with more flowers than she could give away. Instead of letting them go to waste, Caitlin turned her blooms into bouquets—40 little jars of kindness—to help fight food insecurity. In exchange for her mini flower bouquets, community members donated food to Community Food Share, bringing cars full of donations from near and far. ???? Her creative approach reminded neighbors that food insecurity affects many, even as seasons change. “Everyone has a gift to give. If you have a wild idea, listen to it,” Caitlin says. Her heartfelt idea not only raised awareness but also inspired others to find their own ways to give back. Thank you, Caitlin, for showing us that even small acts can make a big difference. ?? Caitlin’s journey doesn’t end here. She has started a new food drive to support Community Food Share! To read her full story and donate to Caitlin’s food drive please visit the links below. ??
