It is an ancient tradition first described in the Hebrew Bible. A spokesperson for Eat Greater DSM said need has skyrocketed this year. In a normal year, they distribute about 300,000 pounds of food. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March, they've distributed more than 500,000 pounds of food.     PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
