CMA Staff Members Volunteer with Cros Ministries Gleaning

On February 12, CMA staff members David Cowan (and Beth Cowan and family), Suzanne Dombrowski (and Elizabeth Dombrowski), Amanda Foor, Nickolas Musick and Brent Whitfield (and Nora Whitfield) volunteered their time by picking bell peppers with representatives from Cros Ministries Gleaning. The event took place at a field in Delray Beach donated by Bedner Farms.  The gleaned food is then distributed to various food banks throughout Palm Beach and Martin Counties.  Gleaning is a produce recovery program partnering with local famers to recover food that would otherwise go to waste. Cros Ministries Gleaning programs include seven community food pantries, six pantries that are located in community partner buildings and one mobile “pop-up” pantry distributing food in six different locations. https://www.crosministries.org/gleaning
