Asia Grocer of East Windsor became the 33rd grocery store participating in Foodshare's Volunteer Retail Pick up Program.
Store manager Rey Palazhi, was happy to hear that the produce his store donates will be served as a meal at the Enfield Loaves and Fishes- possibly the same day. Rey even carted the food out to the volunteer’s car and helped load it.
Foodshare volunteer Tom Burns also volunteers at the Enfield Loaves and Fishes, he says that this kitchen recently got a new cook- who loves to do Creole dishes. So the 56 pounds of okra and eggplant will be put to good use.
