Hello Members,
Would you like to help someone less fortunate than yourself? Here is an opportunity to reach out to people in our own community, who are having a hard time feeding their families and making ends meet. We have an member who is part of a Gleaners group. What they do is harvest from food growers fields or gardens and donate the food to local Food Banks. If you have blessed with an over abundance of food in your fields or gardens and don't know what to do with the excess please call this gleaners group. If you have a large amount to donate please call them 2 weeks advance so they can organize volunteers and trucks. They will glean the donated foods and truck the food for you. All you have to do is make the call...
You can contact:
Paulette Blaseg
Trinity Community Gardens
Cell: 899-7000
Thank You!!

Dear Members,
Margaret Scott has given me the contact for donation of table grapes to Oasis, Royce Wright, phone number, 1 208 459 -6000, at 611 13th St South, Caldwell, Idaho. On Wednesdays, they feed between 100-180 families and would welcome table grapes. Right now, he feels they could handle between 800-900 lbs/wk. If you would like to donate edible grapes (reds, greens, or blacks are AOK), he welcomes them.If possible put your grapes in boxes.
If you can not deliver, he may have help to pick them up.
Oasis is an agency of the Food Bank.
Cindy can you email ??? to our members?
I am sure there are other agencies that would welcome donations also.
Deliveries are on Tuesdays (all day) and Wednesdays am, prior to 10.
Thanks,
Ken
SRTGGA VP
