Fourth-grade students at Kingston Springs Elementary School were excited to receive a poster from Katie Stagliano telling them how proud she is of them. As you might remember, after the fourth-graders read the story of Katie in the September/October issue of “Let’s Talk Trash-News!,” they were inspired to help feed those in need. The students launched “Fourth Grade Feeds” to collect non-perishable food items for The Ark Community Resource Center, which provides social services for residents in South Cheatham County.

In 2008, when Katie was nine she brought home a tiny cabbage seedling as part of the Bonnie Plants program. As she cared for her cabbage, it grew to 40 pounds and she donated her cabbage to a soup kitchen, where it helped to feed more than 275 people. Moved by the experience of seeing how many people could benefit from the donation of fresh produce to soup kitchens, Katie decided to start vegetable gardens and donate the harvest to help feed people in need. Today, Katie’s Krops donates thousands of pounds of fresh produce from numerous gardens to organizations that help people in need.
