�More than a kid�s book, Katie�s Cabbage is a call to action to make a difference�by starting in your own backyard. Katie Stagliano is an inspirational hero with a heart as big as a forty-pound cabbage.��Rebecca Bull Reed, garden editor, Southern Living

�With the clarity that accompanies the innocence of youth, Katie Stagliano let her imagination grow as grandly as did her cabbage and she started a movement that feeds the hungry as well as the souls of the volunteers who reach out to their neighbors in need.��Amanda McNulty, Clemson Extension agent and host of the Emmy Award-winning Making It Grow!
