The Community Food Bank of Mineral County held a groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday with dignitaries at every level on site to praise the work that was done to receive the funding for the new building. 

“The modular building will be 2,200 square feet which is Phase I, “said Wanda James, president of the CFBMC. "Phase II will add more space along with a community room and approved commercial kitchen so we can use it as a community entity,” she explained.
