Hi Everyone,
Today was our last delivery to the food bank for the season, and we donated 195 lbs of
beautiful apples (thanks Peggy), peppers,  tomatoes and winter squash.
Our total donation for the year amounted to an amazing 1,729 lbs. which was more than 600 lbs. over the previous year.   Many, many  thanks to all of you who worked so hard to achieve such a fine result.  The food bank salutes you - and so do I.

Fondly,
Barb

 Hi Everyone

We donated EXACTLY 300 lbs of mostly winter squash and Fran’s apples (plus a few peppers and tomatoes) to the food bank today.  Needless to say, our ‘weigher’ was pretty impressed.
Many thanks to Carol for carrying most of the heavy stuff.  My poor little Mini would have had to make at least three trips!

Have a great week,
Barb

Hi Everyone,

Thanks to Fran’s prolific apple trees and to Sheri’s ditto Asian pear tree, we were able to donate an impressive 142 lbs of gorgeous fruit and veggies to the food bank today.   I wish you could have heard all the oo’s and aa’s our load brought forth from all the people who came to take a look.   Heart warming, to say the least.   I was very happy to see Max, who some of you might remember.  He used to be in charge of the food bank farm and the gleaning project.  Looks exactly the same, but no beard!

Have a great week all,
Barb

Hi Everyone,
Today we donated 66 lbs of beautiful  veggies and fruit to the food bank.  And since we seem to be winding down, I did not pick up any more boxes.

Have a great week,
