Family hosting free Thanksgiving breakfast in Vine Grove

The Johnson family is gearing up to host their third annual community Thanksgiving breakfast, which will be held Thanksgiving morning at Vine Grove City Hall.

“This is for everyone,” said Johnson family member Jennifer Banks. “This is at Vine Grove City Hall. It’s from 8 to 11 a.m., and if anybody wants to volunteer, I’m there at 6 o’clock in the morning, we’re there cooking at six o’clock to make sure everything is ready at eight o’clock, but anybody can come, it’s free. There’s nothing to it. Just come and eat and enjoy.”

That’s Johnson family member Jennifer Banks. She says her family began hosting the breakfast in memory of her grandparents as a way of giving back.

“We just wanted to bless the community, so our family just got together, put our money together, and just feeds the community for breakfast, and it’s just a blessing just to feed someone because you know, everybody does have hard times, but we just want to bless the community,” Banks said.

Banks thanked the City of Vine Grove and Mayor Pam Ogden for hosting the event at city hall. The family is also able to support residents unable to attend in person.

“We do have some food getting delivered to some people who cannot get out, which they have to text me and let me know the address, how many plates, and do they want orange juice or apple juice,” Banks said.
