It’s Yam Jam time again!  The Society of St. Andrew (SoSA) is organizing 2023 Yam Jam to both reduce food waste and feed food insecure people by gleaning the North Carolina sweetpotato harvest!  We expect to glean and distribute more than a million servings of sweetpotatoes this fall and share them with local hunger relief agencies to offer to their clients. Gleaning is the act of going in behind farmers and gathering what is left behind and then distributing that to organizations that will give it to those in need at no cost. This is a great opportunity for churches or church groups to serve together. We will be in fields in Johnston County every Saturday in October and you can sign up here:  https:\/\/endhunger.org\/nc-yam-jam\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
