Does anyone know if there is a Charlotte branch of Food Not Bombs? I emailed someone about it but I think the email address was defunct. If there isn't, is anyone interested in starting one?

From what I've read you go to grocery stores and ask them for the produce that they don't want to sell because it's deformed or wilted and then you cook it up, go to a public park (or wherever homeless people hang out) and hand it out for free to homeless people. There's some "we're destroying the system with carrots blah blah blah" stuff but I'm more interested in just feeding homeless people and whoever wants some food.

i like the sound of that. i dont really like homeless people in charlotte, the ones in daytona and raleigh are much nicer and more awesome. but everyone needs to eat. if its ever happening when twenty eyes plays a show that means i'll be in town for sure and i'd be glad to help.

I work in the produce dept. of a health food store so i'd be willing to help, we already give produce to a food bank as well, but i'll have to talk to my manager about contributing, it should be fine.
and yea certain homeless people in clt do suck,im suprised some of them are still around, but i've also met some really cool ones as of late.

I can honestly say that I have never partaken in any Cisco action. Seems like I should change that.
