My New Favorite Quote and an update

January 25th, 2010 by Lee Bradshaw

‘My major problem with the world is a problem of scarcity in the midst of plenty … of people starving while there are unusedĀ  resources … people having skills which are not being used.’ Milton Friedman
I met last week with someone who I hoped would help me this year. I know if we come close to meeting our goals this year we will have a problem with distributing the food that we gather fast enough. So as I was talking about our goals and needs I was informed of his needs and we agreed to help each other out. He is going to make his walk in refrigerator available to me. This was a great load off of my mind because one of my worst nightmares is gathering food and then having it spoil before I can get it to the people in need. So now we have a partner to help us. But now I have another worry. His problem is that he sometimes gets more than one truck load of fresh produce that he can not store. So now he has recruited me to help distribute truckloads of food. I have always said this project is as big as we let it be.
Now I have a few new items on my wish list: industrial canning equipment and dehydrating equipment and volunteers who know how to run it.
God Bless all of you that have shown your support and continue to do so.
