If you are growing more food than you need. you may want to visit www.AmpleHarvest.org - a

site that helps diminish hunger by enabling gardeners to share their garden produce/herbs

with neighborhood food pantries.

The site is free both for the food pantries and the gardeners using it.

Over 1,100 food pantries nationwide are already on it and more are signing up daily.

It includes preferred delivery times, driving instructions to the pantry as well as (in many

cases) information about store bought items also needed by the pantry (for after the growing

season).

If your community has a food pantry, make sure they register on www.AmpleHarvest.org .

Daily Horoscope for November 30

Pisces

Try to improve your health by incorporating good habits into your daily routine; if you sit at a desk all day long, find ways to stretch your muscles while you are seated. Since the December holidays are almost upon us, it is a good idea to increase your consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables. Before you know it, you will be tempted to eat nothing but rich, fat-laden foods; set some good habits now before you no longer fit into your holiday outfits.
