[ad_1] Hello friends of Fresh Food Weekly, I’m super excited to announce that the list of items for the #Thanksgiving meal box is out!

Hey again, This afternoon I would like to tell you about another Fresh Food Weekly Recipient

[ad_1] Hey again, This afternoon I would like to tell you about another Fresh Food Weekly recipient who is actually the exact same age as me.

Hey Barrie, My neighbors had a fire thats destroyed most of her backyard furniture

[ad_1] Hey Barrie, My neighbors had a fire thats destroyed most of her backyard furniture. There isn't enough items to justify renting a bin. There's only a trailer full or maybe 2 loads in the back of a truck that need to go to the dump. She has children and is on government assistance so she will not be able to pay much, if anything at all. Is anyone able to help? Please send a DM.. Bayfeild and Cundles area. Thanks [ad_2] Source
