North Hills Community Outreach is taking orders through February 4 for its annual Citrus Sale. New this year: strawberries picked fresh in Florida! Boxes of grapefruit, oranges, and pears and quarts of strawberries are hand-checked by volunteers and are available for pickup March 2 and 3 in St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, 1965 Ferguson Road, Hampton. Purchases benefit NHCO, which served 3,486 local families in need last year in northern Allegheny County. Boxes of fruit can also be donated to NHCO’s food pantries. NHCO also seeks congregations, schools or civic groups to help take group orders.
