Thank  you to the Local 6 Womens Community.

WE ARE SO GRATEFUL to places like Hannaford, Shaws, Panara and Solo Pan for donating 1000'S of bags of bread products every month! We put these items outside under the car port so our families can pick and chose the items they want. These bread items are 'culled' and gone thru by volunteers before they go outside...BUT a 'bad' loaf may slip by us. We have seen people going thru the boxes UNDER the tables..THOSE are 'farm boxes' and items we do not feel are appropriate for our families. Many of these items are 'day old'...so understand they need to be used and possibly refrigerated. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED to take anything from the carport area...this is just something we like to do for our families. ... See MoreSee Less
