John Stott: Don’t let that fruit rot, give it to those who need it

The big season of giving is nearly over, but giving is never out of season. I hope The Bee will publish resources residents can call to get help harvesting their backyard lemon and orange trees. As always, this bounty should go to people instead of being wasted. Thanks to The Bee for publishing many articles and pictures of people helping people this holiday season.

John Stott, Modesto
