Organizations Fighting Hunger

Description:

At Plant a Row for the Hungry in Story County, a small team of volunteers collects over 8,000 pounds of produce annually from gardeners, North Grand Farmers Market vendors, and the vegetable garden at Reiman Gardens and distributes it to five local agencies and organizations that feed hungry Iowans.

How to Help:

Iowans can support this effort by volunteering or donating extra garden produce at their collection site at Reiman Gardens in Ames every Monday morning from late June through the end of September. Monetary donations can also be mailed to Reiman Gardens, c/o Story County PAR. Visit their website www.storypar.org or Facebook page for more information and opportunities to become involved.
