Can I ask a favor of those who have the room to garden in their yard.. [View all]

[Peacetrain]

or even grow herbs in their windows..

Keep the food pantries in mind.. we try and volunteer once a month to repackage donated food. We do grow a fairly large garden and put part of it in for the pantry..

But even if you are in an apt, you can grow basil, thyme herbs of all kinds for people to use..

I am sure some pantries in the time of COVID may have issues with fresh foods..but give them a call.. and if they do, when you pick up those three cans of tomatoes for your menu this week.. pick up one for the pantry.. when you get two boxes of mac and cheese for the kids, pick up one for the pantry.

Make them part of your family. Remember the kids when the weather turns with new mittens and hats.. those of us who knit and crochet hats and gloves for our kids and grand-kids, do not forget your kids who come to the pantry.

We are all that one family..
