Andrew Kranjec, a volunteer in the Social & Recreational Program, shares his experience volunteering at Bittersweet:
"I initially started volunteering when I got an assignment in school. We were told to step out of our comfort zones and try something new. With that in the back of my mind, I decided to try mentoring with Bittersweet Farms. I started because of a school assignment, but I stayed because of the people, smiling faces, and the fun. Everyone that I have met and become friends with are wonderful people. They are energetic, nice, funny, and most importantly friendly."
