Gratitude. It’s a principle that has fallen by the wayside in recent times.
But Winnetka residents Mary and Mike McLaughlin have led of life of gratitude, letting it spill out, grow and enrich the lives of others.
In 2008, the McLaughlins started Trees that Feed, a nonprofit which works to plant fruit trees in disadvantaged countries.
To date, the organization has planted 50,000 fruit trees in the Caribbean, including Jamaica and Haiti, and Africa. The world headquarters is on Harding Road in Northfield.
