From sorting food at one of our distribution centers to gleaning in the farm fields, these folks are making a difference everyday. Thank you all so much for all that you do from all of us at the Vermont Foodbank.

It's that time of year again, with snow already on the ground and folks around the state making plans for the holidays to spend time catching up with family and friends over a hot meal. Every year as we exchange gifts and warm ourselves by the fire, our struggles seem to melt away, and it's easy to forget how many people right here in Vermont are finding it difficult just to provide food for themselves and their families.
