I got my Territorial Seed order yesterday and included with my order was a packet of carrot seeds that said, "these are provided free so that you may grow them for your local food bank or a neighbor in need" Well, that's not exactally what it said but that was the gist.
I am impressed! Way to spread the love! :)

Will your food bank accept fresh foods? Ours only wants packaged and canned stuff. They are open one day a week and I suppose have no refrigeration or facilities to carry stuff over.
Great idea though!

I love the Territorial Seed Company. My order should be here soon, I just can't grow carrots. Susan, our small local food pantry will take fresh food. Or maybe a church paantry?

Forget buns of steel, I'd rather have buns of cinnamon!

That's awesome! Another organization that would take the carrots is your local WIC office.
