Two Mendocino Coast chefs’ volunteer effort serves up warm clothing for children in need

WINTER IN MENDOCINO COUNTY is not for the faint of heart. For children without warm clothing, winter is long and cold. 

This year two professional chefs and former restaurateurs have joined forces to help kids. Shannon Hughes, former owner of the Pangaea and Lorca restaurants in Point Arena, and Margaret Fox, former owner of Café Beaujolais in Mendocino, are collecting warm clothing and other items to distribute to children in need at schools on the Mendocino Coast.
