Please Ask for a "Plant a Row" Receipt

When you donate your fresh fruits or vegetables to Loudoun Interfaith Relief food pantry please be sure to ask for a "Plant a Row" receipt. Even if you're not using the receipt for a tax write-off Feed Loudoun uses them for tracking our donations. Besides, it's a fun way to track your donations throughout the growing season while helping Feed Loudoun reach an accurate tally in 2011. Thank you for your help!
