At our first Farmer’s Market of the season, the Ample Harvest Donation Station raised $40 in cash donations from community members.
With these donations Ample Harvest was able to provide thirteen pounds of fresh produce to the Strengthen our Sisters Women's Shelter. Donated produce consisted of three large heads of romaine lettuce, four beefsteak tomatoes, five green bell peppers, four sweet yellow onions, and one large red onion at a cost of $20. The remaining $20 balance will go toward the following week’s donation.
Ample Harvest provides fresh produce to the five locations listed below. We have a donation rotation to ensure that each pantry gets access to the community's contributions.
1. Strengthen our Sisters Women’s Shelter
2. Our Lady Queen of Peace Church
3. Holy with Lutheran Church
4. St. Joseph's Food Care
5. West Milford Presbyterian Church
Keep your eyes out for the coolers at the entrance of the market to make your donations… and thank you!
