McGovern drops by Grafton… to make sure the food bank’s refrigerator is running

U.S. Rep. James McGovern dropped by the Grafton Food Bank Wednesday morning to check out something a little unusual for a food pantry: a refrigerator.

Last September, the Grafton Food Bank was one of 21 food banks across America who received a refrigeration unit from the Dairy Farmers of America. While food pantries typically stock non-perishable products, Grafton is now able to offer some milk and other dairy products.

The farmers group provides dairy products for those in need across the country and invest in smaller food pantries so they can access cold storage.
