Food Drive
Bring it! Food, that is!
Washington Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ranchers are holding a food drive in conjunction with Second Harvest at the WFB Annual Meeting in Yakima Our goal is to fill the Second Harvest Semi Truck with 40,000 lbs of nutritional food.
Donations are being accepted Monday, Nov. 15 –Tuesday Nov. 16 at the YF&R booth located inside the
Yakima Convention Center. The Second Harvest semi truck will be on site Tuesday from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. to collect and
load additional donations.
WFB members --If you are unable to attend this year’s Annual Meeting, please consider having your food
donations transported by someone from your county who is attending. YF&R has created two incentive programs to encourage participation.
We are asking counties to donate packaged food, perishable and/or non-perishable farm products or cash. Second
Harvest can accept bulk potatoes, apples, onions, carrots, fresh fruit, and vegetables. You can deliver on the days we are holding the food drive or complete a voucher on site instead. We have the ability to accept all types of donations from raw product in storage to fresh commodities!
If you plan to donate a raw product, please let WFB know so we can be properly prepared!
