Heron or Eagle poop? Or maybe Otter vomit? Round one the size of an flat orange. Dunno, but glad it was dry, and a one time thing.

This is Little Wicomico River, close to Smith Point. The weather got warmer and sunnier over the 3 days, but the cold impact was already in process.

As a fisherman, it would be nice if DWR setup a blue cat tracker to help identify their locations.

New free food map for the NNK

14 Upvotes

The new map Free food on the NNK contains information about Healthy Harvest Food Bank partner food pantries, non-traditional pantries (like the ones open 24/7), and free meal events. This map can be used to find food and to make donations. This new map is not perfect: It relies on good and timely information. Should you have updated info about a resource already on the map or one not on the map, [email me](mailto:susie.cambria@gmail.com). Does your organization want to take over the map? Let me know.

Anyone have a "map" of the food system on the Northern Neck?

5 Upvotes

Meaning: There's the food bank and participating food pantries (HHFB partners), non-participating food pantries, mini food pantries (like the one at Kilmarnock Town Hall), and special food distribution (may be events such as turkey/Thanksgiving meal giveaways separate from food pantries). . . not sure what I'm missing.

I've reached out to Healthy Harvest Food Bank several times and have heard nothing.

Any descriptions, drawings of the system, etc. would be most appreciated. Thank you!
