Serving 450 hours this year at the North Coast Growers Association has been an incredible learning experience and allowed us to get involved in grass roots movements. Currently, the Market Match program which allows Humboldt County recipients of EBT to use those funds at local farmer's markets is in jeopardy due to budget related issues. This program is critical for supporting our local community including both farmers and recipients of EBT benefits.

College Corps: Our Service At Arcata High
Jazmin Pacheco-Vasquez , Other Undergraduate Student
- EyannaJonesOtherUndergraduate Student
Through our service in College Corps, we bridge the gap between the lack of support for students and staff. With this experience we now understand both perspectives of the student and the staff when it comes to the pressures of the school system. In our time serving the importance of a positive student/staff relationship has become that much clearer. Work at our sites has not only brightened our perspective on the school system, but as well our career paths. As psychology majors, we have a goal to help and understand people's relationships. So with this hands-on experience, it has further confirmed what area we wish to study in.

The United Indian Health Services Potawot Community Food Garden aims to supply Native American communities with fresh, organic and locally grown produce in an effort to reduce food insecurity while educating clients about the importance of maintaining a connection to the land. College Corps Fellows joined the Garden’s mission to get nutritious food into the hands of those who need it most. Fellows learned a variety of food crops, methods of planting them, and organic ways to manage pests and weeds. After working at the garden, fellows recognize the need for sustained volunteering and help from the community to keep the project running, especially though the summer when students are on break.

I end with a conclusion of how a program like College Corps is beneficial towards community outreach and how the program has benefited me.
