Heidi and Eric Lundberg live near Richvale, California and work as rice farmers. They have two boys, Regan (18), who is a freshman at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa, and Dylan (16) who attends Durham High School.They participated in the Run for Food for the first time last year. "We were impressed and encouraged. We are now committed to taking part in it every year we are able,” Heidi said in a recent interview. Heidi likes that by participating in the Run for Food her family can help the Jesus Center, who in turn will help people she might not normally be able to reach. "I am thankful for the opportunity,” she added.

This year the Lundbergs will be joined by extended family members including Eric’s mother Carolyn, Heidi’s sister Kara and husband Rick and their three children Kendra, Philip and Titus, and her parents Phil and Barbara Wilson.

What will the Lundbergs do after the Run for Food?

Enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving Day together with family and catching up with college students who are home for a few days.
