WORKING TOGETHER FOR DONATIONS WRITTEN BY BEULA DVORAK

As summer comes to a close, so too does the produce and flowers many Iowans enjoy throughout the warmer months. If you are one of those Iowans who enjoyed a particularly lush garden, you may have an excess of produce by the end of summer. Linn County Master Gardener, Beula Dvorak, shares tips on donating extra produce to local food pantries. Linn County Master Gardeners partners with HACAP Food Reservoir, reaching a seven county service area through their 126 partner agencies to distribute food, but there are many food pantries and organizations throughout Linn, Johnson, and Washington counties who may benefit from fresh produce donations.
