Here is an important update from Hoosier Hills Food Bank. TEFAP is around 20 - 25% of the food we receive to hand out. While it appears there is now a touch of good news with the tree nuts and such, the meat and many other things canceled will hurt here in the next couple of months. Now more than ever we all need your help, every can, box or dollar counts! Doesn't matter who you help, HHFB, Community Kitchen, Mother Hubbard's , Salvation Army, a small pantry some place, or us. We are all in the same boat on this one. We do not know what the future holds, nothing is clear, but we will all stick together, stand strong, and work tirelessly to make sure our community has food!

It is this grant right here that has allowed us to extend our delivery area and start our medicine thru food program. That amazing super fresh produce our guests have been enjoying is this grant! Upcoming new meat, this grant! Thank you IU Health Foundation CII Grant!!

Huge shout out and Thank you to the children and families of St Mark's Nursery School & Kindergarten for running a food drive for use and collecting 400 lbs of food! ( That's a pallet full ) You did a wonderful job in helping to feed your community!

What days and times are you open ?
Video is cutting out after drinks, not sure if it continues.
During WW II, people were encouraged to plant "Victory Gardens" to help supplement rations, share with neighbors, and boost morale and comradery. Different people would grow food for their family, and then have extra that they would share with neighbors. This year, not only do I encourage you to grow a garden, BUT please share! If you have extra seedlings, bring them in for our guests to have so that they too can grow food. Have extra from your harvest? Bring it in! We love ALL fruits, veggies, and herbs! Currently we also have seeds available if you would like to stop buy and grab a packet to grow. We ALL win in gardening! It's great for mental health, and the food is the healthiest around! Please feel free to "sprinkle" this post!

We started out with such a good, exciting week.....but then the train hit.... Sadly our beloved old electric pallet jack has died. KeHe has been our savior for years, fixing it, but today it was finally pronounced unfixable. I have no idea how we are going to move heavy pallets with just our little hand jack. On top of that our printer and laminator died too, ugh!! But we MUST replace this electric jack, and that costs $6000 - $7000 for one that will lift 6-8000 lbs. Unless we can find a good used one. We can NOT use our new grant money to purchase one, as that is specifically ear marked for deliveries and food. If anyone knows a company that would like to donate one or anyone can donate for use to purchase one, please consider it. Thank you and Please share

Kehe execs could write off the donation of a new one! I’d start by calling local factories. See if anyone would donate one. You prob already thought of that though.

Very sorry to hear this. Good luck finding one. Maybe try a factory that has some used ones.
