The local organization that distributes food to area food banks is in need of donations. Volker Kromm of the Regional Food Distribution Association says they are looking for the basics. He says that includes pasta, canned goods and peanut butter. Kromm says they are "scrounging around the rest of the province" to try to get at least a truck load of food to ease the shortage. He adds summer is the time when food bank stocks are normally low.
