Fruit and Vegetable Donations
When donating cut fruit or vegetables please transport them in cardboard boxes or plastic
containers lined with a heavy duty plastic bag (to make it easy to transfer them to other
containers in our refrigerator).
When providing fresh vegetables, please provide an estimate of the weight of your donation
in the In-kind Donation Form (see next page).
Whenever possible, replace typical dessert items with healthier items, such as fresh fruit,
particularly soft textured fruits as many of our clients have dental problems.
With respect to prepared foods, please consider how long it has been since the items were
either heated or refrigerated before donating them.
