Holy Cross, Flushing Delivers Mats "Plarned" for Thermal Backing

      Though we have received thermal mats before, the word "plarning" was new to us.  Plarning is the craft of transforming discarded plastic bags into sturdy, reusable "plastic yarn then used to knit waterproof items like these sleeping mats.  

     Karen Acha (foreground) and DCE Denys Zucher delivered to Orphan Grain Train a large quantity of mats made by members of Holy Cross, Flushing and others in the community.  The group is soon obtaining a weaving loom to continue efforts so far done by hand.  We appreciate the loving efforts.
