Wehr Nature Center’s Virtual Food Drive
Join us for a “Fight the Fright of Hunger Food Drive” at Wehr’s 35th Anniversary Halloween Haunts Event.
No child should experience the fear of going hungry. Wehr is proud to bring back our annual Halloween Haunts Food Drive in support of Hunger Task Force’s “Food for Families” campaign. Contributing is easy. Bring a non-perishable food item to Wehr (see Hunger Task Force’s list of preferred healthy items) and drop it in the barrel in our entry area OR contribute to our Virtual Food Drive. The virtual food drive will be open from October 1 to October 31 and you can add to our in-person barrels during the week of the Haunts, October 15-21, 2023.
We appreciate your generosity in supporting Hunger Task Force’s work to feed families in our community. Hunger Task Force is a great partner to Wehr’s Halloween Haunts, providing us with the pumpkins that create our Jack-o-lantern lit trail.
