Food distribution schedule set through end of April
The schedule is set for food distributions through late April. Those events have been held most weeks since last April due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
At each distribution, held on Fridays, about 300 boxes of food will be given away in the “Families Food Box Program” which is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The distributions are scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m.
The schedule includes:
- March 19, Community Action Main Street Store, 113 South Main St., Albion
- March 26, Orleans County Cornell Cooperative Extension, 4-H Fairgrounds on Route 31 in Knowlesville
- April 2, Orleans County Cornell Cooperative Extension, 4-H Fairgrounds on Route 31 in Knowlesville
- April 9, Medina High School, Mustang Drive, Medina

“We remind people not to block driveways,” said Melissa Blanar, director of the Office for the Aging, which helps organize the events. “We want to thank all the volunteers. Without them there would be no events. Please be patient and kind.”
