Aug 29, 2024

Join Us in the Fight Against Food Insecurity in Our Community

Grassroots Giving

 

Did you know that 1 in 8 households in the United States are currently facing food insecurity? That means that many families in our community do not have sufficient access to quality food and other basic needs. At Weed Man, we’re proud to be locally owned and operated right here in Fort Collins, and we strive to make a difference for people in need – right in our own backyard! That’s why we want to invite our customers to participate in our 2024 fall food drive: Grassroots Giving!

What to Donate

From August 26 to November 1, 2024, we’re partnering with the Food Bank for Larimer County  to collect donations of the following items:

 

  • Peanut butter (non-hydrogenated oil) 

  • Canned meat/fish (chicken, salmon, tuna) Grassroots Giving

  • Canned fruit in fruit juice 

  • Whole grain, low sugar cereal 

  • Whole grain pasta 

  • Brown rice 

  • Macaroni and cheese 

  • Diapers (size premie, 5, 6, 7) 

  • Hygiene wipes 

  • Mouthwash 

  • Deodorant 

  • Menstrual products

How to Donate

Donating is easy! 

 

  1. The day before your next lawn care application during our Grassroots Giving campaign, you will receive a text or email reminder about your next service. 

  2. During our visit, simply leave any food items for donation outside your front door (preferably in a box or bag). 

  3. Your Weed Man technician will collect all items while they are there to complete your service. 

  4. All donations will benefit our friends at the Food Bank for Larimer County!

 

We hope you’ll join us in the fight against food insecurity in our community!
