For some Minnesotans, Thanksgiving is a community event. Volunteers in Duluth have spent Monday and Tuesday peeling and cooking 2,000 pounds of potatoes — that’s about the weight of a small car. This is just part of the work behind the College of St. Scholastica’s free Thanksgiving Day Buffet. The event is 35 years running and now takes place at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center. Organizers this year expect to serve more than 3,000 people and deliver 1,000 meals to homebound Duluthians. MPR News host Nina Moini talks with Monica Hendrickson, who has led the effort for about a decade, and Kala Pederson, who coordinates meal deliveries.
