Local families in need have another chance to get food boxes this week.
The next mobile food distribution event is scheduled for Friday, May 21st, at 2:30 pm EST at the Birdseye Library at 100 South State Road 145 in Birdseye.
New guidance from the United States Department of Agriculture says that families and individuals who accept a food box are certifying that they are food insecure, have a lack of money or other resources, and are in need of the Farmers to Families Food Boxes for their household.
