A busy day at HFS started with the good folks from The Producer Partnership in Livingston delivering 2400 lbs of ground pork and beef. They are bringing similar loads to 10 communities across MT - all donated by ranches around the state and packaged by the Producer Partnership, a nonprofit helping to end hunger in MT. Thanks Producer Partnership and Montana Food Bank Network - MFBN, Elk Creek Creek Colony, and all those who donated meat!!!🧡💚🧡
