Harvest for the Hungry

Healthy Harvest for the Homeless is a effort to feed all of the homeless in Howard County.

This week you can leave any healty, non-perishable food items near mailboxes and your postal workers will drop off the donations to the Howard County Food Bank.

You can also drop them off to any firehouse or directly to the food bank.
