Ironwood - The Michigan State Police Post and Super One Foods joined efforts Monday to help stock local food pantries for those in need. The Stuff a Goose food drive began Monday and ends Oct. 24.
From now until then, donations can be made either by purchasing a $5 dollar bag filled with $10 worth of groceries at Super One, or by donating non-perishable food items to the Michigan State Police Post in Wakefield Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Last year we collected over 30,000 pounds of food, said First Lieutenant Don Horn. Horn said the Wakefield post collects more food than any other post in the state.
"We have three pantries chosen," said Horn. It makes a significant difference."
All groceries stay in Gogebic County which will go to help a neighbor in need.
