During the week of March 8, 2010 Food For Thought shut down to complete some major repairs which included ripping up all of the flooring, replacing the subflooring and finished the project off with new tiles and new grocery store shelving.

A special thank you to our wonderful supporter George Lord who helped to defray the cost of the project. We have created a video of the process to share with you.
