In her most recent blog post, MFB’s Farm to Food Bank Coordinator Amy Cawley shares the latest updates on how cool weather, rain, and COVID-19 is affecting the work of the Maryland farms and farmers that make up the Farm to Food Bank Program.
In her first post of 2020, Farm to Food Bank Coordinator Amy Cawley explains how our partner farms are dealing with COVID-19 so they can continue to supply fresh produce to hungry Marylanders.
COVID-19 may be affecting traditional food assistance programs, but it hasn’t changed the passion, dedication, and commitment that the Henderson-Hopkins school is showing it’s community by offering safe drive-through, walk-up, and home delivery food distribution options to their neighbors in need.
The Maryland Hunger Map is helping us make an even greater impact on the loves of hungry Marylanders. We’re using the data to deliver more targeted solutions on a more localized level than ever before. Here’s how.
At the Maryland Food Bank, we know that better nutrition means better health. That’s why, with the help of farmers like Steve, we’re committed to delivering millions of pounds of fresh produce annually through our Farm to Food Bank Program.”Hunger does not discriminate, we want to see people having healthy options for their meals”-Steve of Mason’s Heritage Farms.
