USDA Farmers to Families food boxes distributed in Concord
USDA boxes were
recently distributed at
Old Mount Calvary Out
reach Center in Concord
through an arrangement
by A Closer Look Minis
try of McDonough and
Ethan Phillips.
The U.S. Department
of Agriculture recently
purchased an additional
$1.5 billion worth of food
for nationwide distribu
tion through the Farmers
to Families Food Box
Program.
In total, USDA has
distributed more than
132 million food boxes
in support of American
farmers and families af
fected by the COV1D-19
pandemic.
“This new round of
Farmers to Families Food
Boxes will go a long way
in helping American
families access nutri
tious and healthy meals
as we recover from the
COV1D-19 pandemic,”
Secretary of Agriculture
Sonny Perdue said.
The Farmers to Fami
lies Food Box program is
part of the Coronavirus
Food Assistance Pro
gram, which was devel
oped in response to the
COV1D-19 pandemic.
Using authority provided
by the Families First
Coronavirus Response
Act, USDA partnered
with national, regional
and local distributors,
whose workforces were
significantly impacted by
the pandemic. The ad
ditional funding for the
program was included
in the COV1D-19 relief
package as part of the
Consolidated Appropria
tions Act passed Dec. 21.
In this fifth round of
purchases, USDA will
again purchase combina
tion boxes to ensure all
involved recipient orga
nizations have access
to fresh produce, dairy
products, fluid milk and
meat products.
