To assist those affected by the recent weather disasters in Missouri, the state Ag Department with the Central Missouri Food Bank is holding a Mid-Missouri food drive Wednesday, May 25.

Canned and non-perishable food items along with cash donations will be accepted Wednesday morning to help the disaster victims in the Joplin area and in southeast Missouri. The proceeds and donations will be directly donated to the Food Bank of Central Missouri.

The Ag Department will also donate produce from Missouri’s Growing Together Garden (located at the ag dept.) to the Food Bank.

Donations may be left at the Missouri Department of Agriculture located on Missouri Blvd in Jefferson City.
