Rake and Hoe Brings Cheer to Mobile Meals’ Clients

Members of the Rake and Hoe Garden Club of Westfield met at the First Baptist Church of Westfield where Mobile Meals originates and made 45 small floral arrangements to accompany the meals delivered that day. The club performs this service twice a year which is much appreciated by the clients who look forward to receiving these colorful arrangements.

Mobile Meals is a voluntary, non-profit program that provides home-delivered meals to those who are unable to shop and prepare their own meals on either a temporary or permanent basis. It is available to residents of Westfield and surrounding communities including Mountainside, Fanwood, Scotch Plains, Clark and Cranford. For more information, call 908-233-6146.

The Rake and Hoe Garden Club is affiliated with the Garden Club of New Jersey and the National Garden Club, Inc.
