Last year in Idaho, over 152,000 people were experiencing food insecurity according to the Idaho Foodbank.

Unfortunately, many of those same people do not qualify for government programs, like food stamps, due to their income. Groups like the Boise Kitchen Collective are working to help fill that gap.

Jenna and Seth Damron joined Idaho Matters to talk more about the importance of a home-cooked meal.
