Walnut Grove residents are encouraged to support a community food drive hosted by the local library this Saturday morning. The initiative, which has been successfully maintained with the help of the Girl Scouts, aims to provide essential food items to those in need.

Library officials announced that donations can be made not only during the food drive event but also any day of the week. Residents can contribute non-perishable food items or monetary donations, which can be given to library staff member Dana, who will provide receipts for cash contributions. Dana and her team will use the funds to purchase additional food supplies as needed.

The food drive has seen fluctuating participation, with some days witnessing more donations than food taken away, highlighting the community's engagement in supporting this vital service. The ongoing efforts of the Girl Scouts have been instrumental in keeping the shelves stocked and ensuring that the program continues to thrive.

This initiative not only addresses immediate food needs but also fosters a spirit of community involvement and support. Residents are urged to contribute and help maintain this important resource for those facing food insecurity in Walnut Grove.
