The Maryland Food Bank needs our help! Their shelves are empty!!! Donated products at the Maryland Food Bank are at an all time low, only 50% of their normal donations. Soup kitchens, food pantries and emergency shelters are not getting the food that they need to feed the hungry in Maryland. These are hungry people like children, hard working adults and seniors living on a fixed income.
We are looking for large empty boxes, volunteers to be contact points to run the drives in their offices, volunteers to make pickups and drop offs to the Food Bank, and donation items! The food bank needs MORE than canned items, but also peanut butter, nuts/seeds, dried beans, oatmeal, breakfast cereal, rice and rice cakes, all pasta, evaporated milk, powdered milk, infant formula, puddings, diapers, toilet paper, plastic/paper plates and cups, salad dressings, soups and unused health and beauty items. Clear out those pantries, help someone in need!
If you can help out with getting boxes, holding the drive, picking up and dropping off to the food bank in Baltimore, contact Linda Nguyen at info@lindasellsbaltimore.com or 240.988.1626.

Their mission is the alleviation of hunger & the improvement of nutrition of economically disadvantaged citizens worldwide. We accomplish this by the establishment of community farms that teach people of all ages & any ethnic background methods of organic, sustainable production of fruit, vegetables, eggs, & wool , and in the near future milk & cheese, so they can learn how to grow food for themselves & for others, and in ways that regenerate the Earth's precious soil. All crops produced at Garden Harvest farms are given to the poor.
