The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled.

This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

I've got multiple pounds of apples, pears and bananas. Any recipe ideas for bulk cooking? Would love to use them as I cook for 50 people tomorrow
