The Foodbank Holiday Haulers, organized by Lisa Cullen of Montecito Landscape, have been recognized as Outstanding Volunteers by the United Way of Santa Barbara County.

The Holiday Haulers are business owners who donated their time, trucks and manpower during the holiday season to transport donated food to the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County.

According to United Way, Foodbank community relations manager Diane Hadighi estimated that the Holiday Haulers brought in more than 10,000 pounds of food.
