The Farmy Army is at it again.

This Friday, between 1:30 and 3:00pm, 600 needy families in Christchurch’s earthquake-ravaged eastern suburbs, will benefit from a Farmy Army ‘Sunday Roast Pack’.

Each pack will have frozen meat donated by Alliance Group, vegetables donated by farmers from around Ashburton, and Beef+Lamb recipe suggestions.

The Farmy Army is working closely with the New Brighton Police, to identify residents most in need, and Rural Women New Zealand, the Student Volunteer Army and other volunteers, to get the packs into Christchurch’s eastern suburbs.

The main distribution centre will be the New Brighton Police Station’s frontyard on Seaview Road in New Brighton, but some ‘Sunday Roast Packs’ will be delivered to those unable to come to the Police Station, as well as to residents in Sumner and Lyttelton.

The Farmy Army is keen to hear from anyone who wants to volunteer to assist with deliveries or pack preparation.
