Foodbank Recipients Harvest Thanksgiving Veggies
“Recipients at a foodbank in Scott County in east Tennessee participated in a SNAP-Ed nutrition education program, where they planted and tended a garden over a 6-month period. The educator noted that participants proudly harvested sweet potatoes and cabbage to use for their Thanksgiving meal.
Said one, ‘I can’t believe it’s November and we’re still getting food from this garden. I’m glad to know this is possible.'”
