Brookshire Grocery Co. kicked off its 30th annual Spirit of Christmas Food Drive. Locally, the grocer’s efforts will help the Christmas For All food basket program. Donations of non-perishable food items are being collected at the local store. Those items will be turned over to the Community Food Bank of Franklin County to distribute the food to families who need assistance before Christmas. For more details on the program, see the November 24 edition of the Mount Vernon Optic-Herald.
