It's Week 3 of our Minnesota FoodShare Weekly Challenges: Gather the Grains! ❤️

Collect as many shelf-stable grains as you can: white and brown rice, couscous, regular pasta, whole wheat pasta, gluten-free pasta, and breakfast grains like oatmeal, porridge, cream of wheat, millet, and cornmeal.

You can drop off donations at any of our five food shelves in Apple Valley, Burnsville, Farmington, Lakeville, or Rosemount. See our website for hours at each location: https://360communities.org/food-drive/resources/

The Minnesota FoodShare March Campaign runs from March 1st to April 6th. The more dollars and pounds of food we collect during the campaign, the more grant funds we will receive from Minnesota FoodShare, increasing the power of every donation! ❤

Our goal is to raise $150,000 and collect 150,000 pounds of food! Can you help us? Donate online at https://secure.qgiv.com/for/360communities/
