Joe Arthur, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank

Posted Feb 02, 2020

Milk is one of the most requested food items in food banks, yet it goes unfulfilled because it is perishable. Joe Arthur, Executive Director, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, talks with host Candace Kelley about a program and its partners that make it possible for food banks to purchase milk from dairies at a reduced price and provide it to families who cannot afford this staple that most of us take for granted. Recorded at the PA Farm Show, the nation's largest indoor agricultural event, at The Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex and Expo Center, Harrisburg, PA. centralpafoodbank.org
