About Our Community Outreach Program: Share The Harvest Challenge is a partnership between the
farmers' market and the Matthews Help Center. This fresh produce donations program challenges market customers and farmers to donate  during market to  help feed hungry local residents who turn to the food pantry of the Matthews Help Center for assistance. More than a ton of produce was donated in 2010. We want to double that amount this year. Coolers marked with the above sign will be near the market information tent. Please give!
