DEAR SUN SPOTS: Applewald Farm at 525 Huntington Hill Road in Litchfield is again collecting donations of formal wear, street clothes, wigs, jewelry and new makeup for the Rainbow Ball which will be held the first weekend in May.

Following that, we will set up our farm stand with all the amazing surplus for anyone in the community who could use these things. Last year was so much fun with hundreds of people trying on and choosing free items which gave them joy.

If you’d like to donate, please send me a message to arrange a drop-off time on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=applewald%20farm or email [email protected].

If you’d like to volunteer to help at our give away (days and time to be determined) you can also message me. Donations can also be dropped off at Maine Family Planning in Augusta or Lewiston during regular business hours. — No name, Litchfield
