Adam Pearson, owner of Queenies Bake Shop in downtown Port Hope, is thankful for his community.<\/p>\n
For the 12th year, Pearson - who is also a municipal councillor - is showing his appreciation by serving a free takeout Thanksgiving dinner for the community on Sunday from around noon until 2 p.m. or whenever the food runs out.<\/span><\/p>\n \"As many people know, I'm an active member within our community and I love my community,\" Pearson said. \"I also realize on a day-to-day basis that there's some struggles. I am supported all throughout the year by many, many individuals so I take it upon myself to support others during that time. It is Thanksgiving and I am thankful for what my community has done for me so I'm giving back to my community.\"<\/p>\n The lineups have been long in recent years and the food runs out. No longer does he have Thanksgiving leftovers to donate. The menu is a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with turkey, potatoes, dressing and vegetables. <\/span>Pearson also thanks his Queenies staff for their help in providing this dinner to the community as they sign up to come in to help.<\/span><\/p>\n Queenies Bake Shop is located at 16 Walton Street in downtown Port Hope. <\/span>Donations will also be accepted for the Northumberland Fare Share Food Bank.<\/span><\/p>\n Listen to the audio report below:<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adam Pearson, owner of Queenies Bake Shop in downtown Port Hope, is thankful for his community.
