Montana Food Bank Network gears up for holiday season

Thanksgiving kicks off the holiday season, and many families across the state may need help providing a holiday meal to their family. Montana Food Bank Network in Missoula is gearing up to provide meals to families in need.

“We do work directly with manufacturers, we also work with through our Feeding America network which is the national food bank network, and we also work with a lot of vendors and bulk buyers, brokers, those types of things to get a lot of that food as well,” said the President and CEO of the Montana Food Bank Network Gayle Carlson.

Much of the distribution the Montana Food Bank Network participates in is already done for Thanksgiving, although local pantries may need some help this time of year.
