NEW ULM — USDA Farmers to Families Food Box Program will hold a food box giveaway on Friday, Oct. 30, at the Brown County fairgrounds, starting at 1 p.m.

The giveaway is under the local sponsorship of Catholic Charities USA, Diocese of New Ulm, Knights of Columbus, and the Brown County Fairgrounds. The truck will be carrying 1200 boxes, with each 25 lb. box containing dairy products, meats, and fresh produce. The Knights of Columbus will take the lead on this to aide in distribution and logistics. The Brown County Fairground board will be donating the Fairground location as our distribution site.

The food is free of charge, with no questions asked! You only need to show up at the Brown County Fairgrounds on Friday, Oct. 30. Enter the Fairgrounds from the West gate (near Washington School) and proceed toward the grandstand area. The food will be given out until it is gone, starting at 1 p.m.
