Among the many cancellations due to COVID-19 is the 2020 Food from the Heart annual gathering at White Hall Plantation.
This midsummer event, which features food prep demonstrations in exchange for monetary and food donations, directly benefits people in need in Gloucester County. Last year, Food from the Heart brought in 40 grocery bags and $6,300 for the county’s three food pantries.
