Woodland Park lasagna mama helps spread organization s recipe of sustenance and kindness spreads throughout nation

Janet Stoddard has worked and volunteered for decades with abused children, special-needs kids, struggling readers and families seeking housing, but her newest interest is the first to require putting on a chef’s hat and adopting the title of “lasagna mama.” “The things I was involved with in the community all came to an abrupt halt with COVID,” she said. “This is a great way to still be involved in a safe and meaningful way, help out a neighbor and share your love.” Stoddard, a Woodland Park resident, is one of 1,500 volunteers across the country who have joined a COVID-inspired brigade called Lasagna Love. The grassroots effort started last April with San Diego mom Rhiannon Menn, who in 2019 began penning her thoughts on motherhood on her Be Good to Mama website.
