  • We had to go to the food bank again. The ladies said they had so much and that stuff was going to go bad. Lots of produce and bread this time. I filled some bags full of apple and onions. And they gave us lots of goodies as usual. This has to be the most I have ever received. So blessed and grateful for our local food bank.

    You can freeze the bags of kale and use it when you need it for soups and chilies.

    I volunteer at a food and clothing pantry. We try to give cakes like this to families with kids. Some weeks we are very heavy on donations and others very low. Some weeks we have lots of customers and some weeks few. The food has to be distributed as it will go bad and we do not have a lot of freezer capacity either. We use the term “haul” all the time as it is a haul to get it all out and loaded in the car. Customers get the word from us and it has nothing to do with the awesome appreciation we get from customers no matter what words they use. God bless!

      There are a lot of grants out for food pantry proteins. Grants look daunting but are more about networking and communication than good writing. Ours just got a grant just for protein. It's not usually like this.

    Idea: freeze the bananas whole in freezer bags for smoothies and baking banana bread. Cut up and cook the apples and freeze for cooking and baking. Etc. There is always canning too. With the citrus, you can squeeze the juice into ice cube trays and freeze for adding to ice tea or lemonade or just free mix g it in bigger baggies for juice. The possibilities are wonderful. I am so glad you got so much good usable food! The haul is a blessing to the givers and the receivers!!

    • @rachaeloregon38
      @rachaeloregon38  4 месяца назад

      Ooooo, I had not thought about juicing the citrus. Going to have to do that. I learned the hard way that you need to peel bananas BEFORE you freeze them. Lol, what a slimy mess. Yuck.

    Your food bank hauls are mind-blowing. I've never seen anything like it! You are so generous to give away food boxes.
    You are very inspirational because picking up and then managing all that food must be exhausting!

      Lol, it kinda is. I love being able to help. I used to have money and could just buy stuff if people needed it. Now, l am limited on funds but I have more time to help and share. Being a part of a small town church has been so fun. 😍 lots of needs, emotional and physical pop up at random. I like to be prepared!

    If people knew what to donate for non perishables it would be better. Like, flour, sugar, baking stuff, spices, you know things you need to cook. Cooking spray, oil , shorting, baking powder/soda, cinnamon, vinegar. I could go on n on. I use to only think people just need can goods and cereal jiffy mix ……
