Pederson's Natural Farms Donates Organic Sausage to North Texas Food Bank
In an effort to help the fight against hunger, Pederson's Natural Farms recently donated 1082 pounds of organic smoked sausage to North Texas hunger-relief organization, Community Food Bank.
Pederson's Natural Farms' donation will provide approximately 4328 servings of superior quality, hormone and antibiotic free protein source to individuals and families in need. According to both state and national research, protein is one of the most frequently requested items at food pantries yet the hardest to come by.
