Stop Hunger Now is an international humanitarian relief program designed to provide food and aid to…read moresome of the most vulnerable people in the world. There are various projects that your group can help with including packaging food, medicine, or toiletries. There are also some projects where volunteers can make pillow case dresses for girls or shorts and shirts for boys instead of packaging dried foods or medicine. The food project involves placing a vitamin packet (donated by Heinz), a scoop of soy flour, a scoop of dried vegetables, and a scoop of rice into a package that is weighed, sealed, and mailed overseas. Each package can feed around 6 people, more or less. If the packages go to a school, each package may be enough to feed at least 6 kids, but the same size package may not be extremely satisfying for several adults. However, it's something. And, it beats going for days without a meal. It's a lot easier for a child to concentrate, learn, and work when they have at least some nourishment. Having a meal, however small, allows them to focus on the task at hand and not their hungry belly. And, when children can get an education, it helps to reduce poverty, and when poverty is reduced in a country, everyone ultimately benefits. Instead of gorging on cake and ice cream, why not have a birthday party at Stop Hunger Now, where kids can help package meals for other kids who don't have easy access to food? They will probably have a blast preparing packages that they know will help to feed a child the same age as them on the other side of the world. You can organize a work group for a volunteer day if your organization encourages volunteer participation. Or, you can just call them up and see how you can help. Overall, a charity with a great concept and vision to help provide food and aid to people that desperately need it.

Nice place for some strawberry picking! We came by on a Thursday at around 5 PM. My daughter had so…read moremuch fun pointing at and picking the berries. We picked two buckets and it's a set price per bucket, so you can pick as much as can fit. The strawberries were really sweet and fresh. We went during MDW weekend, which is the tail end of the season, but there were still plenty of ripe strawberries available to pick. If we ever visit NC during this time of the season again, would definitely want to come back for some more strawberries - especially since it's only 5 minutes away from my BIL's house. Apparently, there's a farm store, which I didn't know about - probably because we were in such a rush to leave because it was so hot that day.

It's $20 for a full bucket which is plenty to feed us, three. Don't forget to stop by their little shop too! There are some great pickled veggies, jams, preserved fruit, and fresh made Icecream! The banana pudding Icecream was perfect for the hot day! It's sweet, fragrant, creamy, thick, and wasn't overly flavored with banana to where it tasted fake! Overall, highly recommend!

I've been going to this u-pick farm since they opened for strawberry season. Just so you…read moreunderstand, I LOVE strawberries and the fresher the better. The strawberries here fit the bill. I would go every day if I could. The farm is off of Pulleytown Road, easily accessible from Louisburg Road/401. I started coming here before Mother's Day and I filled my bucket easily. The middle of the week and just when they open is the best time to go. It gets pretty busy on the weekend and there is no shade. I give it 4 stars as they only take check or cash. Since this is the first u-pick farm I've been to in NC, I do not know if it is the norm. If I find out that it is, I will adjust my rating. Overall, great place to go for fresh strawberries in Wake Forest!

This farm stand is located right off Ten Ten road near Lake Wheeler Road. It is easy to access and offers ample parking in their gravel lot. I've visited numerous times and am always greeted. The employees are friendly and helpful. The fresh produce is hit or miss, but I usually leave with what I need. Most recently I stopped here for zucchini and before that peaches and blackberries. The produce is fresh and of good quality. Prices and names are labeled and the produce is organized. They accept cash and card. They are pricier than grocery stores and other farm stands, but worth it for the quality and convenience. Overall, I have had good experiences here and recommend this farm stand to others!
