Almost 400 lbs donated!!!
386 lbs to be precise. The Capital Area Food Bank has been receiving the fruits of my labor this summer, with donations starting at the end of May. The goal is to get to 500 lbs, I think I can do it :) It has been extremely hot this summer, with temps in the 100's. The tomatoes are fairing pretty well, with only minimal blossom end rot and some cracking skin. The peppers are loving the heat, and the eggplants are starting to produce as a sign of these oppressive temps. The cotton has formed hard buds but none have opened yet. The banana, pineapple and mango are still growing but no fruit production. The sesame, wheat and oats are going to seed.

I applaud what you are doing. Way to go. I want to do the same. I do not like to see people go hungry. I want to be part of the solution but I have a lot to learn. Thank you for sharing your pictures.
