Montgomery County, TN  – The holidays are quickly approaching and it’s the time of year when many in our community need assistance. Montgomery County Government is partnering with Manna Café Ministries to host a county-wide food drive.

All county offices will be collecting non-perishable food items beginning Monday, October 15th and going through the month of November.
