New Toulouse

The Gumbo Society of New Toulouse is holding a bake sale to benefit the Second Harvest Food Bank of Greater New Orleans and Acadiana. Proceeds from the sale, along with donations to the kiosks around the parish, will be sent to the Society’s holiday fund drive, to which direct donations may also be made. Persons wishing to donate baked goods should box (no-copy) items and address them to Yvonne Follet.

The bake sale will continue throughout December, with new items being added periodically. Stop by the west entrance to the Spiegel Hall garage to peruse the current selection of tasty treats!
