The Lisbon Christmas Parade

12/24/2025

Thank you to all who donated to The Lisbon Christmas Parade's Annual Canned Food Drive! Your nonperishable canned food donations will definitely help feed the hungry in Howard and Carroll Counties!

Here is a collage showing some behind the scenes work from last week's Elves who loaded bins of food donated through our food drive at The 2025 Great Lisbon FARMERS FEED THE HUNGRY Christmas Parade!. The food was divided and donated to Carroll County Food Sunday and the through the Community Action Council of Howard County.
We'll let you know the total approximate weight when we are notified from both food banks!
There's still time to make a monetary donation. Presented by The Howard County Farm Bureau in partnership with the Carroll County Farm Bureau, the proceeds from The Lisbon Christmas Parade benefit Howard County Food Bank, Carroll County Food Sunday, Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry - FHFH and the Lisbon Volunteer Fire Company.
