The Adams County Farmers' Market Association partners with The Campus Kitchen program at Gettysburg College to donate surplus fruit, produce and bakery items to assist families in need. This is how the program works. At the end of the farmers' market week, volunteer students visit our markets to pick up surplus fresh fruit, produce and baked goods from the vendors. The students then return the product to a certified kitchen to prepare for distribution to families that normally do not have access to fresh food. In 2008, our market vendors donated over 1,000 lbs. of fresh products through this program and we are happy to contribute. |

Plant a Row to benefit local families in need. Go to the link to register! In partnership with the Adams County Farmers' Market Association, the Campus Kitchen at Gettysburg College invites you to plant an extra row of whatever it is that you grow to donate to low income families in Adams County. Donations will be distributed to families through local food pantries, soup kitchens, and the Campus Kitchen. |
