Let’s get cracking: the local food pantry is need of egg cartons.
Executive director Karla Hagemeister, who is also a member of the Manhattan-Ogden School Board, shared Wednesday that the Flint Hills Breadbasket has a ton of eggs and would welcome empty cartons.
“We’re getting four pallets eggs that are bulk packed, so they need to be repacked by the dozen,” she said, and someone made a gasp.
“It’s OK. We can do hard things,” she said, laughing.
She said the Breadbasket also will need volunteers to help pack on Wednesday, Jan. 14, and Monday, Jan. 19.
Given the fragile nature of raw eggs, Hagemeister requested people not bring kids to volunteer on those occasions.
