“ These are two of the best programs in Bremen Township,” says Bremen Township Supervisor Maggie Crotty. “ I’m very happy with partnering up with CEDA and Chicago Food Depository. This food in the produce mobile is the things I would pick up at the store. Fresh, some organic which is almost three dollars a pound, is a lot of what you get at the produce mobile.”
Volunteers are also needed for the produce program, which is only once a month. If you are interested in volunteering for Bremen Township Produce Mobile, contact Rondal Jones at 708-333-9530.
Other dates for the produce mobile are;
Friday July 10th 2015
Friday August 14th 2015
The Produce Mobile is a program of the Greater Chicago Food Depository and is sponsored by Bremen Township & Together We Cope.
