The UC Ventura County Cooperative Extension (UCCE) 4-H kicks off it's 16th annual Trick of Treat So Other Can Eat (TOTSOCE) food collection project to benefit Food Share, the county's local food bank.  Beginning in October members of the public can donate nonperishable food items at participating sites throughout the county. 

Over 38,000 monthly Food Share clients are expected to benefit from this program.  Last year's volunteers collected over 6,500 pounds of food and a goal of 7,500 pounds to food marks this year's goal.

The UCCE office in Ventura has set up a donation bin in our lobby.  If you would like to contribute at our office:
