Food distribution for Vernon County seniors scheduled for Tuesday, July 18

Healthy Nevada and Ozark Food Harvest plan to continue hosting the drive-through Mobile Food Pantry for Vernon County residents ages 60 and over. Distributions are scheduled to take place on Tuesday, July 18. Food distribution sites will be in Walker at the City Park from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m., and then in Deerfield at Emery’s Truck Stop from noon to 1 p.m. Residents of Vernon County may pick up from either location. However, boxes are limited to one per household.

“We are very thankful we can provide the fresh produce boxes. These drive-through distributions have been very successful and help individuals who are often overlooked," said Healthy Nevada Lead Strategist Dana Redburn. "We are particularly appreciative of Ozark Food Harvest who chose to serve Vernon County through a grant from Feeding America."
