Original Toronto Star caption: A thanksgiving harvest for Metro's hungry. Volunteers sort food collected in the six-day Share Thanksgiving food drive; which wound up yesterday after collecting $1 million worth of groceries; enough to feed 50;000 hungry people in Metro for weeks to come. The food starts going out to agencies today; but hundreds of volunteers are needed to finish the sorting job at the warehouse on Housey St.
