The 2012 Marion County Crop Walk is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. Oct. 7 west of the Marion County Park and Lake office.
The Crop Walk is an annual fundraiser for hunger-fighting development efforts of the ministry of Church World Service. Crop Walks help provide seed, tools, wells, water systems, technical training, and loans in more than 80 countries.
In addition, 25 percent of the funds raised will be used to serve local families through the Marion County Emergency Food Bank.
