The Student Council of Hartford Middle School is pictured here with groceries from their food drive for the pantry last fall. The High School also had a drive collecting funds at Harding’s. Between the two groups, it was estimated that we received around $2,000 worth of groceries and funds.

Fresh produce is appreciated on Saturday mornings when gardens are producing.
