Our FEED TO GIVE Chicken event was a huge success this morning! Over 200 families in our community were able to purchase affordable fresh-from-the-farm chicken breasts while helping to raise $1300 for a good cause helping our community. A win-win all around! We plan to run this great event again in 3 weeks on June 3rd. Information will be forthcoming. This next event may also include different cuts of chicken options and possibly also farm fresh vegetables. We are really looking forward to it. Thank you to the former Mayor of Bernards Township and now current President of Bernards Township Chamber of Commerce Al LiCata for helping us bring this great initiative to our community. Thank you to all who helped, volunteered, and participated. We look forward to our next event on Wednesday June 3rd.
Please stay strong, and keep positive. We will get through this together! Pioneer Strong!
