Knowing food can be scarce for Valencia County families and sometimes even harder to come by during the pandemic, local volunteers and organizations are making use of a federal program to get nutritious, fresh food into the hands of those who need it most.
On Friday, Feb. 5, a semi truck hauling 1,300 boxes of food was met by a small army of volunteers from local churches, businesses and community centers to distribute the food across the county.
The boxes come from the Farmers to Families Food Box Program, a USDA grant program that partners with national, regional and local distributors, to purchase fresh produce, dairy and meat products from American producers of all sizes.

According to the criminal complaints, shortly before 2 a.m., Friday, Feb. 19, deputies with the Valencia County Sheriffâs Office were dispatched to 298 Meadow Lake Road about a disturbance at the residence, and were told a man was possibly shot in the chest.
When the first deputy arrived, he found a man lying face down on the ramp leading into the house and a second man face down on the floor of the living room. Both were unresponsive and not breathing. The two men were later identified as the Romero brothers, who lived at the house, according to a press release from VCSO.
