MATTHEWS, N.C., March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Harris Teeter and Consalo Family Farms are teaming up to provide fresh produce to those in need through their Mandarins Making a Difference campaign. For every pound of Little Smoochies mandarins purchased at North Carolina Harris Teeter locations from March 6 – 12, Consalo Family Farms will donate a pound of mandarin oranges to Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina.

"Hunger relief is Harris Teeter's top priority in giving back to the community," said Danna Robinson, director of corporate affairs for Harris Teeter. "Our trusted vendor Consalo Family Farms shares this dedication, and we're honored to work together to donate much-needed nutritious produce."
