Fresh herbs in free meals
Mary Macs Place in Woy Woy will now use fresh herbs in its meals after a herb garden was donated by a hardware store.
Project officer Ms Christine Burge said: "We hope to not only get our volunteers involved in this, but also some of the people who use our services have expressed an interest in helping with the garden."
Each week-day, teams of volunteers prepared and served more than 80 nutritious hot meals to homeless and disadvantaged people and families struggling to keep a roof over their heads, said Ms Burge.
The fresh herbs would be used to enhance the taste and presentation of meals prepared by the volunteers, she said.
Ms Burge said Mary Mac's Place received no government funding and relied on community and business support for its continued operation.
