"Santa Fe needs to be part of the solution and not part of the problem on climate change."Food Depot gets $6,500 from piesThe Food Depot, which provides food to pantries in nine northern New Mexico counties, netted $6,500 from auctioning off 51 pies during its Pie Mania last weekend, according to Executive Director Sherry Hooper.She estimated about 600 people attended the event.Meanwhile, the organization is gearing up for the holidays, with collection sites set up around Santa Fe, including at Del Norte Credit Union, Century Bank and Smith's Food and Drug locations, among many others.Also Smith's and Whole Foods will enable customers to add donations to their grocery bills to be converted into gift cards for The Food Depot.

In case of rain or snow, you will need a four-wheel drive to get through.The Forest Service asked that visitors avoid driving around ruts, which results in habitat destruction, excessive erosion, and unacceptable road damage.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Albuquerque Journal (Albuquerque, N.M.)
