GLEANING PROGRAM
We are excited to announce our new Gleaning Program this year! Our good friends at the Goochland Free Clinic and Family Services will be picking up food products that vendors may end up discarding at the end of each market day. In addition, customers will have the opportunity to purchase products for the GFCFS's Food Pantry for donation to needy families. If customers have other items that they would like to contribute to the GFCFS's Food Pantry, click on the preceding link and view a list of needed items. We will be collecting these items weekly at the ChiknEGG booth.
