In a surprise donation, a New York food bank received 13,000 fresh, live salmon from a soon-to-close salmon farm in Auburn. This unexpected catch is a huge haul for the food bank, providing a unique opportunity to support local families in need. With the farm's closure, the donation helps reduce food waste and supports sustainable food systems, highlighting the importance of food banks and their role in the community, including food security and nutrition assistance.
