We are hosting several more popup food drives over the next 10 days in case you’ve missed us or want to give again:

Saturday May 9thVictor Farmington Library parking lot 10 to 1 pm. We could use rice, pasta sauce, applesauce cups, granola bars, peanut butter, trail mix, canned fruit, macaroni and cheese, cereal and oatmeal. Also, any canned protein–tuna, canned chicken, beans, etc. Thanks so much!

Wednesday May 20th *new date*– Top’s Markets in Farmington 8 am to 6 pm

We would be delighted and grateful to accept any unexpired food at this time. To give you a general frame of reference, we are currently feeding about 1500 people per month and sending out over 18,000 pounds of food. While nothing is certain right now, we do anticipate a significant increase in need over the next six months. If you garden please consider this idea: www.americasgrowarow.org and if you don’t have land, what about a bucket garden? (There are lots of resources and YouTube instructions online!)
