Feel Good Friday…Feed the Hunger

As many of you know food is a “thing” with me. I love growing it, eating it, sharing it, cooking it. I hate the fact that some 38 million Americans are food “insecure” these days. That means they do not have enough food to eat 7 days a week or 4 weeks out of the month. If they are receiving food stamps there is only enough to eat 3 weeks out of 4. The person most likely to go hungry…a single mother of two. She will feed her children and then not eat herself. Then layer that sort of information on top of the fact that we throw away tons of edible food every day. The seeming contradiction is maddening.

Here is one man’s answer:

We are working on this problem locally…with our community garden to feed people and the hands of hope food program. If you want more information I how you can participate drop me a line!
