WCC to receive grant

Parking lot closure

Corrections

A story entitled “Locally grown organic food is a good bet” in the Feb. 11 issue contained a mathematical error, which mistakingly reported global population growth between 1950 and 2015 represented a nearly 36 percent increase. The story should have reported the increase to have been more than 280 percent.
