Farm Bureau’s “Harvest For All” program helped provide 29 million meals to fight hunger

Farm and ranch families across the nation donated more than 34 million pounds of food last year to help fight hunger. Through the Farm Bureau’s “Harvest For All” program, the combined donations totaled the equivalent of 29 million meals.

Young Farmers and Ranchers Committee Chair Ryan MacKay spoke with RFD-TV’s Suzanne Alexander on the program’s background, last year’s efforts, and how people can get involved.
