According to a report by the MU Interdisciplinary Center for Food Security, 24 percent of households with children in Greene County face food uncertainty, which means that the access to food is unreliable or inconsistent. Hunt says the food pantries help with this problem.

Did you know that summer and fall tend to be peak periods for home renovation? In part, it's because of the fair weather, and it's also because that's when people are making changes to the home after kids leave for college...and before people start arriving for the winter holidays.
