A new refrigeration unit is providing space to expand what is being offered to those using the Hubbard County Food Shelf.
“We raised over $35,000 through grants and donations,” assistant food shelf director Denny Ulmer said. “We had some very generous donations after we had an article in the paper and were able to get some of the grant money available because of COVID.”
