Grasshoppers is excited to announce, with the help of our generous customers, they are donating over 40 FRESH LOCAL TURKEYS to needy families and local charities in celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday.

 

FRESH Turkeys are being provided by Schacht Farm in Monroe Co.,IN. The birds have been raised by Matt & Mandy Corry and have spent their time foraging free on the range. These broad-breasted bronze turkeys are full of flavor, drug-free and will be processed on Friday, November 18th and will be given to each charity on Monday, November 21st and Tuesday, November 22nd.

 

Customers have been calling Grasshoppers over the past week to pre-order FRESH Turkeys specifically to be donated to local families in need. Grasshoppers is working with The Center for Women and Families, Portland Promise Center, Salvation Army, Family Scholar House and the Shawnee Arts & Cultural Center to provide FRESH, free-range, drug-free Local Turkeys for the needy in the Louisville area.

 

With a goal set to DONATE 100 TURKEYS for the Thanksgiving Holiday, Grasshoppers is almost half way to their goal. People can call-in to make a donation or customers will have an opportunity to purchase foods to donate immediately to local needy Louisville families at the donation center during the Grasshoppers Thanksgiving Market at the main warehouse (1501 Portland Ave.) from 10am-6pm, Monday, November 21st and Tuesday, November 22nd.Grasshoppers is local food for local people!
