The Bunceton High School agriculture class recently held a food drive.
Cans were collected and sent home in buddy packs over the holiday break. It was an amazing group effort, said Chris Herriman, business and ag teacher. I want to thank all my fellow teachers and staff members for their generous contributions, he said. I also want to thank community members and parents for their considerate donations.
The class collected 300 cans of food and 150 boxes of noodles and other food products. A social media post from Bunceton senior Maddie Brandes generated a lot of support. Jason Burnett and Hunter Shuffield helped move and organize the food. A lot of the donations were soup or other high-calorie items.
