All the bananas are now gone! The Salem food pantry managed to get rid of all the bananas in just one day.
The Salem Ministerial Alliance Food Pantry at the Grace United Methodist Church late Monday afternoon received a truck load of bananas. 970 boxes to be exact containing more than 100,000 bananas.
The Director of the food pantry, Carol Ann Short, is the one who got the call for the banana truck.
“Yeah, so we got a phone call Monday. They said we have a truck of bananas and we’re trying to find somewhere to donate them. We were like great, not realizing how big of a truck we were going to get. So, several hours later we had a semi. It took about three to three and a half hours to unload. We had quite a team of volunteers, and some of the sheriff’s department guys came over and helped.”
