I know turkeys are on sale, but people living on limited income many times spend their money on groceries at the first of the month and can\u2019t afford the minimum purchase required to get the low price. Would appreciate if the community would know of need and Thanksgiving isn\u2019t too late. A church in Rifle was giving out food baskets but got so many requests they have had to turn people down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND Letter Name\">Nancy Bernard<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND Letter Title\">Glenwood Springs<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspentimes.com\/opinion\/letters-to-the-editor\/turkey-donations-are-appreciated\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: The Aspen Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Re: the lack of food available at the food banks for Thanksgiving.
