MOUNTAIN FOOD RESCUE - Lynnie - 11-27-2023
MOUNTAIN FOOD RESCUE PANTRY TONIGHT! MONDAY NOVEMBER 27 FROM 5:30 - 6:30 PM
COME SEE OUR NEWEST DONATION FROM GOOGLE! An extraordinary double door glass fridge. It holds almost 3x the amount of food as a regular fridge and uses half the electricity! Special thank you to Jason and Joven for adding the extra voltage we needed in our electrical panel.
We have a REALLY big amount of food tonight. Please come help rescue some of the most awesome food. We have a ton of prepared foods, even some complete turkey dinners and other prepared meals, lots of produce, bagged salad greens, tomatoes, potatoes, turnips, bell peppers, pineapples, apples, oranges, cranberries! I found an excellent recipe for Cranberry Curd Tart with a hazelnut crust from the New York Times, I can post a copy of the recipe at the pantry if you're interested. We also have lots of pumpkin spice lattes, please take at least one! And cheese, so much cheese we had to put it in coolers when we ran out of refrigerators. Not a huge amount of bread but plenty of pies (apple, bourbon pecan, etc), pastries, and cookies. We even received some pet food today. We have snacks, candy, chips, cereal, canned goods (with some special Holiday canned goods like cranberry sauce, cream of mushroom soup, chicken stock, stuffing mix etc). We have some meat and a few frozen turkeys. No milk this week but we do have eggs! If you have neighbors who can't get out tonight please take something home for them. Isn't there a new baby in the Bar K? Maybe someone could shop for them tonight? What a great gift for new bigger family!
We want to thank everyone for your generous donations over the past weeks! Looks like we are going to have some Winter specific expenses coming up and sure could use the help. Donate what you can but always know that everyone is welcome even if you are not in a position to donate monetarily. Thank you again to our wonderful volunteers, today it took 10 volunteers 4 hours to unload, weigh and put away tonights bounty! That doesn't include the drivers who picked up the food from Boulder, Louisville, and Costco or the people who came in to put the food out on the tables, or the distributors you will see tonight. It truly does take a village and we have the BEST one ever!
