In collaboration with the Westmoreland Food Bank, 250 boxes of fresh produce were given out to community members. The event was part of Highmark Wholecare\u2019s Farm-to-Family program, which addresses food insecurity in Western and Central Pennsylvania. In 2026, 37 free farmers markets will be held with a goal of distributing 225,000 pounds of free, fresh produce to 10,000 families through the Farm-to-Family program.<\/p>\n<p>            &#13;<br \/>\n                        &#13;<br \/>\n                        &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<br \/>\n            &#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; \/Local News &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; 1 \/ 2 Courtesy of Highmark Wholecare&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":165978,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[13929,74822,43365,73,75,74],"class_list":{"0":"post-165977","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pittsburgh","8":"tag-farmers-market","9":"tag-highmark-wholecare","10":"tag-mon-valley","11":"tag-pittsburgh","12":"tag-pittsburgh-headlines","13":"tag-pittsburgh-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165977","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165977"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165977\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/165978"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165977"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165977"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165977"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
