Bring a box, or a bag, as there are now some 36,000 pounds of free potatoes in Lloydminster, donated by Second Harvest of Manitoba.
About 20,000 pounds of potatoes are at the Lloydminster Native Friendship Centre, and the rest were given to the Salvation Army.
The Lloydminster Native Friendship Centre was contacted by Second Harvest, about the large potato donation.
A steady flow of people kept the volunteers busy at the centre throughout the afternoon. Given the volume of potatoes, the generous effort will be ongoing until the potatoes are all gone.
The Lloydminster Native Friendship Centre is located at 4602 – 49 Avenue.
