\"\"<\/a>Receive the perfect Mother\u2019s Day gift and contribute to the health and well-being of Mayan villagers\u2019 lives! Sign up by April 20th for the baking demonstration April 28th<\/a>!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

In her 20s, Leslie Mackie worked in Los Angeles with many Guatemalans. She fell in love with their big hearts and generous souls. Her daughter, Olivia, now 23, was born in Guatemala City. A few years ago, Leslie learned about Guatemala Village Health<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0from her daughter. Through education, empowerment of local leaders, and development of local health providers, this fantastic non-profit gathers people to help improve village health and prosperity in Guatemala. When they asked us to team up for a\u00a0fundraiser<\/a> <\/strong>to support their efforts in improving Mayan villagers\u2019 lives, we couldn\u2019t say no!<\/p>\n

For each $75 donation to the Guatemala Village Health fundraiser, you will receive a tote bag containing a Macrina Chocolate Raspberry Cupcake Kit<\/a><\/strong>, a jar of Project Barnstorm Raspberry Conserves, and a Macrina tea towel. Donate $120, and you\u2019ll also get our most recent cookbook,\u00a0Seasons<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0signed by Leslie.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition, all donors get to join Leslie on April 28 for a Zoom baking demonstration<\/strong><\/a> from her Vashon Island farmhouse kitchen. She will demonstrate how to bake our Chocolate Raspberry cupcakes, assisted by her daughter Olivia. \u201cI will demonstrate the mixing, baking, and making of the filling,\u201d says Leslie. \u201cWe will also demonstrate how to sugar some edible flowers for\u00a0Mother\u2019s Day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our Seasons Cookbook\u00a0includes some of our customers\u2019 favorite Macrina kitchen recipes, from brunch dishes, to summer desserts. Celebrated local photographer Jim Henkens<\/strong><\/a> spent days on Leslie\u2019s Vashon Island farm to create the vivid images that illustrate the well-tested recipes.<\/p>\n

By participating in this fundraiser for Guatemala Village Health, you can make a valuable contribution, learn how to bake delicious chocolate raspberry cupcakes, and discover new favorite recipes in our cookbook.<\/p>\n
