BAKERSFIELD, CA. - Last night was phase two of the 7th Annual "Love for Thanksgiving" monster feed.

On Monday night, organizers delivered more than 1,000 frozen turkeys to families in need.
     
Now, the efforts have turned to feeding some 64,000 people in our community who've fallen on hard times. 
     
Nearly two thousand people got their hands dirty last night, preparing nearly 2,000 turkeys for a deep pit roasting tonight..
     
The birds are basted, spiced, bagged, wrapped, then placed in cages to await their final destination -- an underground oven.
     
This faith-based cooking bonanza brings together people from 14 different local churchs to give away food for those in need.
     
There is still time if you would like to volunteer.

Organizers say you can head to the Costco on Rosedale Highway Thanksgiving morning between 5:30 a.m. and 6 a.m  to help deliver the meals.
