Former Farmland Foods employees try to keep their spirits up while handing out boxes of food to fellow dislocated workers Tuesday at the Union Center in Albert Lea. Using money raised at the Aug. 14 benefit at the armory, grocery certificates from each grocery store in town were also given out to the employees. Carroll, Iowa, announced recently that it will no longer try to lure Farmland Foods back, leaving Albert Lea and a few other cities vying for the location of a new meat processing plant.
