Got more meat than you need? Help out the hungry by sharing all or part of your fall harvest with the New Hampshire Food Bank, which is very much in need of protein foods. They accept donations of whole or processed game animals for distribution to food pantries and soup kitchens statewide.

Last year, the Food Bank’s “Hunt for the Hungry” program took in nearly 1,280 pounds of donated deer, bear, moose, duck and other game meat. The program offers packaging instructions and can pick up your donation. Call food bank operations manager Michele Garron at (603) 669-9725.

If you’re donating a whole deer or moose, you can bring it to Lemay & Sons Beef in Goffstown (603-622-0022), and they’ll process it for the food bank at no charge.
