Hearts and Hands of Baytown (HHB) is a ministry of Iglesia Cristo Viene, established in 2014 to alleviate the physical and emotional hunger of those in need in a dignified and supportive way. Client Choice is a more efficient way of distributing food, providing an avenue for clients to make positive choices with confidence and without judgment, a small step toward self-sufficiency, while decreasing waste and risk of potential harm for those with dietary restrictions.
HHB takes a comprehensive approach in providing supporting services with collaborating partnerships that not only work to eradicate hunger but to address the underlying causes.
Please call 832-597-8908 to arrange details regarding donations. Thank you.
ProducePedia
ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
