Another great way to help is by volunteering for a 2 hour shift on Saturdays packing and distributing fresh vegetables to families at Casa Guadalupe’s Vegetable Pick Up program. Fresh veggies are donated and then sorted and given to qualifying families. Contact Deb or Gretchen today and select a date that’s open from July till till the end of October. *If you are able to deliver a couple boxes of vegetables for those unable to attend pick up please indicate that.
