When the City of Hamtramck isn't busy defending child marriages, banning Pride flags or renaming streets, they're hosting Gleaners' food distribution events. Maybe somebody on the council misunderstood?

“Anyone in need of food is encouraged to attend, and will receive 30 pounds of nutritious groceries, like milk, fresh fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and other shelf-stable items while supplies last,” Gleaners said Wednesday.

While signing up is not required, it is encouraged and can be done by visiting foodbankhelp.link2feed.com.

Drive-up food distribution sites will take place at the following sites:
