What a nice and generous thing to do Graceland.  Hope a lot of funds are raised.  It's certainly a good cause   :wave:

Thank you i have donated stuff  for the last 3 yrs my stuff that year alone  raised about £80    but in total i believe  it was close to £3.000  so great news 
We all   have extras on our plots and always a glut of something so if you can give to a good cause !

There are some community based food projects (superkitchens) that may be grateful for your excess produce-  see an example below:

I'm sure these might be available locally to where you are...
