The food bank’s Farm Wagon program, which delivers food to sites around northeast Indiana, was canceled Wednesday because of the cold weather.

According to the food bank’s website, Farm Wagon deliveries are canceled for the day when the temperature at 7:30 a.m. in Fort Wayne is 10 degrees or less.
