Food Lion to bring fresh produce to seniors

Food Lion plans to donate fresh produce to seniors in South Carolina through an event and meal delivery service as part of Older Americans Month.

The retailer said it will host a “farmer’s market style shopping experience” that will include at least 10 types of produce at the York County Council on Aging on May 29.

Food Lion also said it will provide Cherokee Meals on Wheels and Union County Council on Aging with 700 bags of mixed fruit for delivery to homebound low-income clients. Deliveries will take place May 30.

Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina is also a partner in the two initiatives.
