Join DL and friends and support local kids in needLansdale's Garden of Health wants to make Halloween a special treat this year for kids in need.
Can you help? Our friends at Garden of Health Food Bank in Lansdale are working on a special drive-through distribution on Oct. 15 at the Lansdale Business Center on N. Cannon Ave. Besides the usual free cartons of nutritious fresh produce and allergen-friendly groceries they've distributed throughout the year for families in need, they are assembling up to 500 non-food goodie bags for kids, and arranging a pumpkin-carved lane to welcome the families. They're looking for sponsors and donations of tchotchkes and fun stuff for the bags, and folks willing to carve a scary face or two. Discover Lansdale is an enthusiastic supporter of this event; if you can join us in any way in the effort, just click to email for more information or to donate. A message from an organizer of the event, Carolyn Holl Watson of Garden of Health: About Garden of Health "Garden of Health Inc. Food Bank (a registered 501c3 non-profit) specializes in allergen-friendly foods and fresh produce, and supplies over 30 food pantries in Montgomery and Bucks County with food (including Manna on Main Street). "We recently moved into Lansdale and are hosting our fifth free food drive-thru for those in need on Oct. 15, featuring a Halloween theme and special goodies for the kids. Each of our drive-thrus has attracted over 450 cars of families and individuals. "Now, you can help! "Along with the free food, we will hand out Halloween bags for the kids with small toys, stickers, promotional items, slime, stickers etc. (no candy as the food bank specialized in allergen-friendly items). Families and businesses can get involved by making a variety of donations listed below. "Drop-offs can be made to our location at 650 N. Cannon Ave. on Mondays - Thursdays from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. or by contacting us directly. "For more information contact info@gardenofhealth.org. "How your business or family can help:
"Deadline: Oct. 9 (except jack-o-lanterns due Oct. 14) "Your donations in any amount will go directly toward helping local community members in need! Thank you!" — Carolyn Holl Watson Cruise Lansdale with us (and benefit Manna) on Sept. 19th!These are very challenging times for all of us, and unfortunately times continue to get worse for some.
Manna on Main Street is the needed hero for SO many families, and now is the time they need our help. We encourage everyone to bring a minimum of 3 canned goods to our annual Cruise Night on Sept 19, starting at 7 p.m. Of course we've adapted the event to conform to COVID's safety restrictions. There will be no pre-cruise car show, no band, no awards presented, and no crowds. This is not the way we expected to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Lansdale Cruise Night. But we do invite you to join us for a cruise down Main and Broad Streets in Lansdale, make a lap or two (or more) along the ‘ol cruise route, and at some point make a turn onto Madison Street. There will be a drop off collection location for food donations. We will be there, in proper protection attire, to collect your donations, handed through your car window. There will be no need to get out of your vehicle. We do have rules. A couple key ones:

Help restore the historic Freight House
Watch for new volunteer opportunities as work continues at Lansdale's historic Reading Freight House.
The exterior deck and old crane hoist are gone, the Liberty Trail is well underway, and the deck's stone piers, made of the same stone as the building, were saved to be reclaimed.
The old wood flooring is still available for sale, in varying lengths at $6 per foot. And we will be selling souvenir benches made from that wood in the near future. All income goes right to the restoration fund.
Also, please consider donating to the effort. Our goal is to have the venue operational in time for Lansdale's Sesquicentennial Celebration in 2022.
