Earlier this month, the Hunger & Health Coalition welcomed Lindsey Sullivan as the organization's new Executive Director. Lindsey is no stranger to the non-profit scene in Watauga County, having served as Health Strategist at AppHealthCare, where, among other projects, she was a lead voice in the creation of STABLE Workplaces.On this week's Mind Your Business, we catch up with Lindsey at the ribbon-cutting for the newly renovated home of Hunger and Health Coalition, a space that connects their footprint to the Community Care Clinic, following a merger of the two organizations in 2025. After the event, we sat down to discuss leading through transition, the value of listening in the early days of a new role, and how prior knowledge of a business can accelerate opportunity for growth.We'll also provide some fresh news on the FY27 budget plans for Watauga County and the Town of Boone. Mind Your Business is written and produced weekly by the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce. This podcast is made possible thanks to the sponsorship support of Appalachian Commercial Real Estate.Catch the show each Thursday afternoon at 5PM on WATA (1450AM & 96.5FM) in Boone.Support the show
The 2026 Food Summit will take place on Tuesday June 16 at the Albany Capital Center.

On today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” with the Trump Administration cutting SNAP benefits, food pantries across the Atlanta metro area are preparing for growing demand on their donations. Santiago Marquez, who serves as the CEO of the Latin American Association, shares that a lot of Latino families are in need, but many don’t seek help due to fear or lack of information about available resources. Then, we have an in-depth discussion about the impact of data centers on communities in the Atlanta metro area. We hear about their mass consumption of water, high energy usage, and concerns about how a data center will alter a normally quiet rural community.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Send us Fan MailHunger rarely looks like the stereotype. Sometimes it looks like a parent who works full-time but cannot make childcare and groceries fit in the same month. Sometimes it looks like grandparents raising grandchildren, a family navigating a health crisis, or someone who just lost a job and needs help for a season. Loving like Jesus means serving those who are the most vulnerable in real and tangible ways. In this episode, Bishop Wright has a conversation with Ashley and Sean Davis about the real faces of food insecurity and why a food pantry can be a lifeline without ever stripping away dignity. Their story starts with a major health issue that forced Ashley to step back from a corporate banking career and ask a hard question: what kind of work actually helps people? This discerning question led them to sell their California home, move to Cartersville, Georgia, and search for a place where they could stop feeling anonymous and start building community. That search led them to The Episcopal Church of the Ascension, where everything “felt right,” and soon after to the Red Door Food Pantry, where Ashley became executive director in 2024. They dig into the measurable impact and the human impact and how The Red Door Food Pantry grew from a ministry of Ascension into a nonprofit while continuing distributions through the church, and serving thousands of households across Bartow County and beyond. They discuss improving access through technology, mobile pantry plans, and partnerships that bring mental health support, housing resources, health services, and recovery connections right to distribution days. Listen in for the full conversation. About the Red Door Food Pantry:For decades, the food pantry was an outreach ministry of the Episcopal Church of the Ascension, and it distributed the same 8-10 items of food every week to about 30-50 people. Purchasing food at retail prices required the food pantry to use restricted funds to meet budgetary needs. Thus, the food pantry was “in the red,” with only about 10 months of operating expenses to fall back on. However, by joining the Atlanta Community Food Bank (ACFB) in 2013, the Red Door Food Pantry was able to buy food for about sixteen cents a pound– thus giving it greater buying power and by helping it attain solvency. In 2022, the Red Door Food Pantry was designated 501(c)(3) status as a public charity.

He discusses the community-first mission that drives every decision at Sturdy Shelter, the international brewery trips that led Frank to the legendary U Fleků in Prague, the science behind why Hefeweizen is the hardest style to brew, and why his phone started flooding with congratulatory messages when he least expected it. 0:00 Intro2:15 The Historic Building and Mark Twain2:47 Introducing Frank Mercadante3:17 How Every Beer Tells a Story4:32 The Francesco Italian Pilsner9:22 The Scripture Behind "Sturdy Shelter"11:10 The 45-Year-Old Wedding Invitation12:38 From Youth Minister to Brewer14:33 Getting Serious About Homebrewing16:36 Entering Homebrew Competitions17:54 What Youth Ministry Taught Frank About Running a Brewery19:10 Why Frank Needed More Than Beer20:45 The Food Pantry and Giving Back23:36 Brewer's Choice: Dancing House Dark Czech Lager24:15 What Is a Dark Czech Lager?25:12 Sturdy Shelter's International Brewery Trips26:55 How U Fleků in Prague Inspired the Dancing House29:14 Two Years to Perfect the Czech Dark Lager31:11 Why Dancing House Became Their #1 Beer35:17 Why Hefeweizen Is So Hard to Brew36:45 Sweaty Yeast, Circus Peanuts, and Hefeweizen39:08 Winning a World Beer Cup Medal by Accident42:03 What Makes a Great Dunkel?44:26 Why Frank Chose Batavia45:27 Batavia's Inferiority Complex46:10 "This Is All Ours"46:37 Why All Their Merch Says "Batavia"47:10 How Frank Found (and Afforded) This Building50:56 What's Next: A Riverfront Deck53:05 The #1 Mistake People Make Judging Beer54:03 Frank's Most Emotional Moment55:37 Final Toast: Cheers to CommunityAbout Sturdy Shelter Brewing: Sturdy Shelter Brewing is a community-driven craft brewery and taproom in a historic mid-1800s building on the Fox River in Batavia, Illinois, where the mission is to create a "treasured and genial" gathering space one person, one conversation, and one highly crafted beer at a time.

You can find little free food pantries all around Seattle neighborhoods. They’re a great place to stock up on a few things or to donate ingredients to a neighbor. Researchers at the University of Washington just launched an app to help people find and fill the pantries. They’re hoping to reduce food waste and make these "micropantries" more efficient. I talk with Giacomo Dalla Chiara, one of the researchers behind the project. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us. Tap here to make a gift and keep Seattle Now in your feed.

Title: ‘The Parable of the Talents' Text: Matthew 25:14-30 by Nick Neves, pastor
Rising grocery, rent and tuition costs are making it harder for many college students to afford food and a growing number are turning to food pantries. More than 10,000 University of Minnesota students visited the U's food pantry last fall.Minnesota Senate Democrats passed their catch-all elections bill for the year on a party-line vote Thursday. The bill includes measures to shield home addresses of politicians for safety. It also makes voter intimidation and harassment of election officials a felony.Minneapolis will add a commemorative street name on the city's north side to honor Birdell Beeks. The City Council voted Thursday to add her name to a street sign near the site of her death. Nearly 10 years ago Beeks was killed by a stray bullet while she sat in her minivan with her granddaughter.A bill introduced at the Capitol Thursday would change how suspicious deaths tied to domestic violence are investigated. The bill is named for Allison Lussier, a 47-year-old Indigenous woman found dead in her Minneapolis apartment in February 2024. Her death was initially ruled suspicious; police later investigated it as a homicide. Lussier's family has accused Minneapolis police of ignoring signs of domestic violence.

What does it mean for community members to have access to foods from their culture? What is it like to take care of an urban forest and hit the trail for your day at the office? How can fitness prioritize strength and community building over weight loss? Once again, we’ve got questions about all the interesting jobs Pacific Northwesterners have, and so do you. So we’re back with the latest installments of our ‘At Work With’ series, where interview people from different lines of work about what it’s like to do what they do. This time, we meet a worker at a market-style food pantry specializing in Latino cultural foods, a park ranger at Oregon’s Tryon Creek State Natural Area, and a coach focused on making fitness more welcoming and inclusive for everyone. We’re always open to new ideas for jobs — or volunteer positions — that we can learn about next!
