• Monthly Service Project:  Rotary First Harvest Work Party at Food Lifeline.
  
  RFH acts as a conduit between farmers and the programs that serve hungry individuals and families in our region. Farmers are occasionally left with surplus fruits and vegetables that can’t be sold due to minor imperfections (such as carrots with two legs or apples that are the wrong size or color), or might not be harvested because of a glut on the market.  Traditionally, this nutritious produce would be sent to a landfill or left to rot in the fields. Instead, RFH directs it to those in need.  For more information, visit their website:  www.firstharvest.org  Work party tasks at Food Lifeline often include sorting foods that have been donated at local food drives, repacking rice, beans and other dry goods into family-sized servings and repacking apples, pears  and other fruits that are donated in 1,000 pound bins.  1702 NE 150th Street, Shoreline, 98155.  For directions and more information on Food Lifeline, visit their website:  www.foodlifeline.org
