Local crop harvested Wednesday for third-world countries
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Farmers gathering their combines on Wednesday for a great cause, helping people in third-world countries who are battling hunger.
The Canadian Food Grains Bank held their annual harvest just south of Medicine Hat, with three donated combines collecting grain which will be used to feed those living in poverty overseas.
Close to 50 people volunteered for the harvest, which was held early this year due to Alberta’s hot and dry weather this summer.
