Whispering Dandelion Farm co-owner Carla Albea says the farm couldn’t make it without its volunteers, so they want to support one of their volunteers who was recently injured in an ATV accident.
“That’s Makayla Post, and she’s a young mom, a young single mom with a toddler, and her grandma has had to take off of work to be able to help her and her baby because it’ll be somewhere around Christmas before she’s able to walk correctly again,” Albea said.
The farm will be hosting a benefit day for Makayla Post and her grandmother Betty Post Saturday, September 21 from 2 to 6 p.m.
“What we’re doing is we’re going to discount admission for a donation, and then we’re also having a bake sale and a silent auction for them,” Albea said.
Albea says the Post family has been a part of the Hardin and LaRue County communities for decades, and the benefit is an opportunity to support two people who have always supported their community.
“Betty and Makayla both have literally raised thousands for March of Dimes, and they’re just great people that would do anything for you regardless of what they’ve got going on in their own lives, so we think that it’s time for the community to give back a little bit,” Albea said.
