Neighbors Helping Neighbors in Need!
Many thanks to Old Town North Farmers and Hank’s Oyster Bar for ensuring none of the produce from the local farms or other local farms sold at the Old Town North Farmers Market goes to waste. At the end of the Sunday Market, Volunteers from the Old Town North Community Partnership and Volunteer Alexandria drop off produce that won’t carry over til next week with our friends at Hank’s Oyster Bar. The produce is stored in a refrigerator until it can be picked by the team from Alive and taken directly to one of the Alive Food Hubs in Alexandria. Many thanks to all involved in this new gleaning program!
