There used to be little food boxes near me, the same people came and wiped it out everytime they filled it. It was the same people. So upsetting the people running them quit and shut it down
We have a high level of poverty and homelessness. In part to drugs and lack of good jobs. I volunteer at a local community center at a church. Several people come to take showers downstairs from living on the streets. Most are doing drugs. It didn't used to be that way. Delco Remy and Guide Lamp used to be big factories here until they closed. Nothing left but retail and fast food. I witness that the more poverty the more people will do things they otherwise wouldn't in better circumstances.
My community has a City sponsored Garden where locals spend about $10 /year to grow their own veggies! Which is a great deal, everything is included to have a small crop share - your bed, seeds, fertilizers, water hose & tools. My mate & I would like to go do that but we both have black thumbs lol 🌱🍄🍈🍋🫒🫐🍓🥕🌶️🍅
I was waiting for over a year for Los Angeles to implement the program through 'Mother's Nutrition Centers' where spending a little EBT there meant getting extra EBT to spend elsewhere later. It was set to start in October of '23... but didn't begin until March of '24. And was promptly CANCELLED in April.

Why did I ever expect anything else! Our house never had any damage from the severe weather here in SW Florida BUT with that being said…. With my phobia’s, I cannot deal anymore! So we are gonna sell it ! We are wanting to build a schoolie! How can we live in a bus with no address and get help? I really need to talk to you ASAP! We are going to be homeless

Having celiac disease makes the idea of ever becoming homeless terrifying. Anytime I've been hospitalized I have to bring my own food because even the hospitals can't accommodate true dietary restrictions.
That's frustrating! It really varies. Some states allow honey, some allow mushrooms, some allow herbs, some Northeast states are even pushing to allow locally-made maple syrup... but apparently some are limited to fruits and veggies. :\ It just depends. -Nicole
