Community Food Distribution Project Supplement #3
Each week, when we deliver local produce and groceries to over 300 local households though the Community Food Distribution Project, we are including a handout with some recipes and cooking tips that include items in the box and a family activity generated by the Grow Food Kids team to try.
For past CFDP Supplements LOOK HERE.
Here is a PDF version of this week’s supplement in English and Spanish.

This week’s Grow Food Kids activity:
Pinecone Bird Feeder:
Materials:
Pine cones – you can find lots on the ground. Make sure they’re dry first
Smooth peanut butter, shortening, or suet.
Bird seed, seeds, cheerios, cereal crumbs, or break up stale bread (or crusts, if your kids don’t like ‘em.)
Ribbon or string
Instructions:
- Tie the ribbon or string firmly to the pine cone. (Do this first because it’s going to get sticky!)
- Mix the peanut butter and bird seed together.
- Push the mixture into the cone with your fingers. You can roll the pine cone in the leftovers, to add an extra coating. Yummy!
- Hang the feeders from a tree, porch, or fence where you will be able to watch birds eating your treat. Send us pics of you & your feeder and tell us what you see!
