More than 250 households lined up to receive fresh fruit, vegetables, and meat. The site is one of the 150 distribution sites in the valley.
“It goes to making sure that people have equitable access to food resources, especially during this time when gas prices are, you know, plus $6 a gallon for them to be able to go to their local communities and to be able to find the food resources that they need, you know, this is what FIND Food Bank is all about,” said FIND Food Bank’s president and CEO Debbie Espinosa.
