As spring arrives in the Hudson Valley, we are reminded of the power of renewal, growth, and community. At People’s Place, this season brings new energy and opportunities to connect, support one another, and continue building a stronger, healthier community together.
We are excited to once again offer our weekly outdoor Farm Stand, providing free fresh produce to our Ulster County neighbors every Tuesday through October. Access to healthy food remains one of the most important needs we see every day, and we are grateful to help make fresh, nutritious options more accessible for local families.
This spring also brings new offerings at our Wellness Empowerment Center, where we continue expanding classes and programs focused on wellness, education, and personal growth. These programs are designed to support the well-being of our community in meaningful and lasting ways, and we look forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces.
As the needs of our community continue to evolve, so does our work. Over the past several months, we have seen a noticeable increase in families relying on our food security programs, as well as more community members shopping in our Thrift Store, which is proudly open to everyone. In response, we are making thoughtful changes internally to better meet these growing needs while staying true to our mission of caring for our neighbors with dignity, compassion, and respect.
Thank you for being part of our People’s Place community. Whether you support us through volunteering, donations, shopping, participating in programs, or simply helping spread the word, your support makes this work possible.
With Gratitude,
Christine
