Update, 25 July 2012

How exciting it is to have the cooperation of Northern Kentucky gardeners!  There is, in Highland Heights, a small cluster of 3 community gardens.  We have begun collecting their donations of produce.  Just this morning, in fact, I collected a nice 5lb. box of tomatoes.  It was a real joy to deliver these to our newest partner, Be Concerned, in Covington, KY.  It's a great operation:
More than 1200 families each month ease financial hardship by shopping at Be Concerned. Through our food program, groceries and toiletries are distributed weekly to low-income families at no charge. Customers shop on a rotating basis by scheduled appointments. Individual selection of goods are important aspects of the program.
Exactly the sort of thing Harvest Stewards is aimed at helping!
