Food Bank of Northern Nevada cancels Tuesday distribution events due to winter weather


A winter storm moving into Northern Nevada is forcing the cancellation of several food distribution events scheduled for Tuesday.

The Food Bank of Northern Nevada announced that all Mobile Harvest distributions planned for Feb. 17 have been canceled due to the incoming snowstorm. The impacted sites include Sparks LDS, Virginia City and Hungry Valley.

Officials say safety concerns for volunteers, staff and community members prompted the decision.

The Produce on Wheels distribution in Hawthorne has been rescheduled to Thursday, February 26. Community members planning to attend are encouraged to mark their calendars for the new date.
