ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) – If you’re feeling the pinch of higher prices at the grocery store, you’re not alone.
Channel One Regional Food Bank told KTTC Monday it’s also experiencing the higher prices.
Channel One said before even considering the increased prices, it is having to buy more food since it is down 25% in donated food in the last quarter.
“As we’re having to buy more food, and that food is also at higher prices, we’re feeling that crunch,” said executive director Virginia Witherspoon.
The organization is also still noticing an increased community need.
Channel One serves people experiencing hunger in 14 counties in southeastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin.
The organization said monetary donations to Channel One can help dollars stretch the furthest.
