News & Observer article quotes Cane Creeker Hailey Moses as she gives away unsold produce from Cane Creek Farm to Margaret Gifford. Gifford collects food from local farmers and producer and distributes it to those who are hungry and in need through community organizations like the Inter-Faith Council for Social Service in Chapel Hill, the Food Bank of Durham and Durham’s Urban Ministries Center.
“Margaret Gifford makes her rounds on a recent Wednesday evening near closing time at the Carrboro Farmers’ Market. With a cardboard box in hand, she reminds farmers that she’s there to collect any produce they can’t sell and won’t keep until the next market day.
“We’re collecting as always,” Gifford tells Hailey Moses, who works for Cane Creek Farm.
“I have some stuff for you,” Moses says, and hands yellow squash and zucchini to Gifford.
