Video of Saturday 25th gleaning project on Orange County Produce Farm Land…

After 5 weeks of cucumber donations Manassero Farms is plowing down his field on the Edison

property next to Irvine Valley College but in one week he will be donating them again from a field

he planted down the street. We had a very good run of donations from this field that helped many

Food Banks and Food Pantries from as far as L.A County…

Heart Of Compassion picked up every week no less than 6 Gaylords…

Heart Of Compassion 6 Gaylords or almost 6,000 lbs…

The Santa Ana Food Bank picked up 4 Gaylords or almost 4,000 lbs

Daily donations still continue to come in from Manassero for Food Pantries…

Including  delicious Strawberries…

We are getting ready for our next gleaning project coming up this Saturday with Second Harvest,

Saddleback Church Food Pantry and Families Forward so stay tune for our post of pictures and

videos. If you would like to volunteer you can do so by down loading our waiver from this link

Irvine Valley College Sports Deparment…

Hi Rob-

I have lots of student-athletes in every sport who are interested in contributing to our community through your ministry.  I’d be glad to talk about how I can coordinate a group on your behalf throughout the year.

Let’s talk,

Shack

Chrissy Olivia a young talented Artist has blessed L&F x10 with a painting she did of a gleaner from

last Saturday’s project at the Great Park.

Chrissy who is becoming a supporter of the ministry by coming out to the projects was gleaning

when the President was taking pictures of the volunteers. The President took a picture of her

and then casually said to her (Chrissy) you should take the picture and paint yourself gleaning

green beans because he thought it would be an interesting piece for her to do.

Well tonight Chrissy surprised us by posting the picture on Face Book of a little girl she had seen

gleaning last Saturday and plans to bring it to our next gleaning project and presenting it to the

the President.

We have to say that this is a surprise and a blessing to have an Artist like Chrissy paint

something we are passionate about.

Thank you Chrissy for your time and effort you put in this painting we will always cherish it

because we know it came from your heart and it is about what we are about and that is feeding

the Community.
