Humanity House has given away a ton of food this summer.
Through its weekly produce giveaway session, Humanity House crossed the 2,000-pound threshold Friday, organizer Tracy Keagle reported.
Keagle has marked the weekly giveaway sessions since it started in mid-May.
On Friday, 252 pounds of produce was distributed.
“It’s gone very well,” Keagle said. “We gave away all we had last week.”
The produce comes from garden plots Keagle tends on the northeast corner of the courthouse square.
She and others hand out bags of whatever folks want at 6 p.m. Fridays, free of charge.
Much more remains to be given away through the summer and fall, Keagle said.
Her goal for 2016 is to give away 6,000 pounds of free produce.
