Andary talked with her team and they felt like “a meal made and packaged with love is a perfect way for us to “do something.””
The Blue Berry Cafe’s first free meal will be available Wednesday, Nov. 5.
Those in need should come to the host stand at the restaurant’s Kettering location, 2932 S. Dixie Drive, during regular business hours and order “take away” meals for their household.
The first meal will consist of marinated and grilled chicken breast, smashed red skin potatoes and slow cooked green beans.
A kids meal will be available consisting of chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, green beans and grapes.
The restaurant plans to make 200 pre-packaged meals. These will be packaged in microwaveable containers and are at no cost.
Meals will be available 7 a.m.-2 p.m. through Friday, Nov. 7 or until they give them all away.
Since making the Facebook post, the community has donated more than $1,250 to support the restaurant’s efforts.
