Growing Together
Meyers Brothers Kalicka, P.C. (MBK) partnered with the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts’ Hadley Farm on May 30. In previous years, MBK employees helped by filling sandbags to secure tarps for weed prevention, spreading compost over cardboard to build two 30-foot-long plant beds, and constructing greenhouses that are now filled with vegetable plants. For a third consecutive year, tasks included planting tomato, lettuce, and basil plants and installing garden netting for young plant protection.

Community Dental Day
More than 100 people visited Springfield Technical Community College on May 3 for the seventh annual Community Dental Day, which offered free dental care to area residents who otherwise might not be able to afford it. Organized by STCC’s Dental Sciences Department in partnership with the Massachusetts Dental Society Foundation and the Valley District Dental Society, the event brought together volunteer dentists, dental assistants, and students to deliver free care.
