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.
Victory Villa, located in Middle River, is one of the Maryland Food Bank’s statewide partner that was not only able to stay open and keep feeding their hungry neighbors when COVID-19 struck, but actually do more to help some of the more vulnerable members of their community.
Virtual Food Drives (VFDs) are a great way to help support the Maryland Food Bank’s efforts to feed hungry Marylanders through COVID-19 and beyond. You can do them safely from home and have a huge impact on the lives of your neighbors in need.
To meet the growing need as COVID-19’s effects force more Marylanders into food insecurity, we’ve set up an off-site location to build Back Up Boxes, 30-pound packages of shelf-stable, nutritious foods than can be easily packed, transported, and distributed wherever the need is in our state.
Check out the latest local and national news about the Maryland Food Bank and how we’re addressing hunger in our communities.
