In Alabama, Colony’s Carpenter’s Cabinet community food pantry, held its official grand opening. This food pantry is able to obtain food for 14 cents per pound, and then distribute it to the people in need. Applicants for this food service must prove eligibility in order to receive food from the non profit organization. This type of food distribution is able to save a lot of money and help those in need. So it is beneficial in many ways. This particular organization in alambagh will help over 300 families.
Relation to Environmental Science:
This article is portraying the kindness of the community, because a company is donating to those who need food. It also relates to the environmental aspect because the process of getting the food and giving the food is much more cost efficient and environmentally friendly. Rather than selling the processed foods at stores, people are receiving food through the organization which helps the environment because most of this food is organic.
Wow, what an incredible initiative. Do you know if this organization has a way of spreading nationally or internationally?
Because it is distributed in mass, it uses less energy, but the term food is general. At 14 cents a pound, is it probable that most of the food is not organic or sustainably farmed?
This is great! How can these families be considered eligible to gain access to this new food source?
