A couple of local food distribution events are planned for this weekend.
Christ’s Family Church in Chicora plans to give away a tractor trailer load of food away in the parking lot on West Slippery Rock Street. Boxes containing fresh produce, meat, and milk will be distributed to those who meet income guidelines Saturday from noon to 4 p.m.
Another distribution is also planned for Saturday in neighboring Lawrence County beginning at 8:30 a.m. at The Towne Mall Cascade Galleria Plaza in New Castle. Volunteers will load boxes of fresh milk provided by Marburger Dairy, as well as frozen meat, fresh produce and nutritious shelf-stable groceries into the vehicles of families in need.
Orchard Hill Church is also holding a food distribution Saturday from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at their parking lot on Walker Avenue in Butler.
