You may already be aware of the numerous food pantries located in our county, but did you know the Love Center alone helps 1100 families annually? That translates into 700,000 pounds of food. The money used to purchase that food is 100% donated. Over the last four years, Holmes County Farm Bureau has presented Harvest for Hunger, a dinner fundraiser which has raised over $30,000 to support the food pantries in Holmes County.

Sept. 18, 2021 the Holmes County Farm Bureau will proudly host the fifth annual Harvest for Hunger, an elegant and unique benefit dinner, held on a local exotic animal farm. The purpose of this event is to raise funds for the Love Center, which will help us disperse those funds to other food pantries in the county. The second goal of this event is to entertain guests with amazing food and help promote the connection of food to agriculture in Holmes County. A live auction will follow dinner with those proceeds being donated to the local food pantries as well.
