For the sixth year in a row, Strangers Helping Strangers be conducting a non-perishable food drive at Strangefolk’s annual end-of-the-summer gathering, The Garden of Eden Festival. The Garden of Eden Festival has historically been Strangers Helping Strangers largest annual food drive, bringing in approximately thirty-five percent of the total items theyve collected over the years. This year, Strangers will attempt to break their Eden 2001 record collection of 3,000 items. Three Strangers Helping Strangers will be set up throughout Edens festival grounds, benefiting the Franklin County Community Meals Program.

Donators can also win a handful of prizes, including a pair of tickets to see the Boston Red Sox vs. the Devil Rays on Sept. 15th, signed and framed pictures and posters of Strangefolk, Strangers Helping Strangers t-shirts, and live and studio CDs of the bands playing Eden this years festivals.
