SUMMARY: The content is about Vitalant, a blood donation organization, partnering with local blood banks to collect as much blood as possible across the Pine Belt region. Their goal is to help those in dire need and support local blood banks. They are holding a blood drive in the town of Sumrall at the First Baptist Church. Community members are encouraged to donate, and mobile units play a major role in reaching and meeting donors. The blood drive will be closing soon, so donors have about an hour left to participate.

For 13 years, Vitalant has partnered with WDAM 7 to collect as much blood as possible in the annual Blood Bowl.

SUMMARY: The Aberdeen Farmers Market is thriving, welcoming vendors from local farms like Cherry Creek Orchard and Shady Acres. Opening in early June, the market features fresh berries, plums, peaches, and other produce throughout the summer. Vendors enjoy interacting with customers, educating them on their farming practices, and building community ties. Mary Dunn, founder of Aberdeen’s Master Gardeners, sold out quickly on opening day, encouraging others to pursue gardening or baking. The market fosters friendships and bartering among vendors. It runs every Friday, 8 to 10 a.m., through the end of July at Commerce and Chestnut Street.
