A northeastern Indiana nonprofit organization that provides meat to several food banks is seeking help from the public because some processing plants have been shuttered due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry in Garrett has an abundance of pigs sent to it from farmers because the meat processing plants it partners with are either closed or slowed down production due to the virus outbreak.

The nonprofit received 28,000 pigs in donations. Meanwhile, the nonprofit expects at minimum, an additional 500 pigs weekly moving forward. Processing one pig costs $200 and the organization is encouraging people to donate via its website or send a check or a money order to help offset processing costs.
