Our community attacks hunger in many ways


From Tallahassee Florida-

The idea for this column came from a recent email exchange with Judy Mathews, a member of Holy Comforter Episcopal Church. You see, Mathews wanted to know how to get information published about new developments with the church's food pantry, which is open every Saturday.

The story ran in last Sunday's Chronicle section of the paper.

Holy Comforter's food pantry has been in existence for years. The news was that it recently joined a network of area food pantries affiliated with AmpleHarvest.org, a national effort that uses the Internet to connect local gardeners with food pantries. The two-year-old program has received national attention for its efforts to get fresh produce distributed from the estimated "40-plus million Americans" who grow food in home gardens.
