I received a message in my inbox on Friday letting me know that, after 18 years of operation, June 6th will be the final day of programming for Local Matters.

Tour of the Mid-Ohio Foodbank
Members of Simply Living were pleased to be included in a tour of the Mid-Ohio Foodbank held for the central Ohio community on February 28. The Mid-Ohio Foodbank is a part of the Mid-Ohio Food Collective (MOFC) which, in addition to the Foodbank, consists of more than 600 partners (about half of which are Food Pantries) serving more than half a million people each year across 20 counties in central and eastern Ohio.
