The Ohio-based Great Lakes Cheese Co. has initiated a 31-state recall of shredded cheese because of possible metal fragments in the products.

The Food and Drug Administration said the fragments may have come from a supplier of raw materials used to make the cheese.

The cheese was sold under multiple brand names, including Borden, Good & Gather, Great Value, Publix, Food Lion and Food Club, and at stores such as Walmart, Target, Aldi, Publix and H-E-B.

Our Native community in Kern County deserves care that honors the whole person—medical, behavioral health, spiritual wellness, and the connection that comes from community. That’s what we work to provide every day.

When you give, you’re helping us keep these services strong, accessible, and culturally grounded for the people who rely on them.

Anyone who donates during 2025 before the year ends will also be invited to our Donors Gathering in late February 2026. We’ll share updates, stories, and gratitude for the impact you’ve helped create.

If you’re able, we’d love your support this Giving Tuesday.
Together, we can keep this work growing.
