Pine Valley Active in the Yavapai Food Neighbors Project

“Yavapai Food Council is adopting a neighbor-to-neighbor system that makes it easy and fun for people to either donate and/or collect food.

“The model has been under development for several years in Southern Oregon, and now it has spread to over two dozen communities across the US.

“The results have been incredible. Hundreds of thousands of pounds of food are being donated, and participants are getting to know their neighbors and strengthening their communities.”

How do you get started? Click on the “Sign Up Now” button on this page and read more on the Yavapai County Food Council website. Read an article about this Project in the Red Rock News here.

The next pick-up date for Pine Valley will be December 14, 2013. Call 928-593-0755 for more info.
