In addition to recognizing the Food Pantry’s anniversary, attendees will also have the opportunity to honor our nation’s veterans during a special Veterans Day Waterfire. More details about this event will be made available later this summer. Please plan to join us! (*Please note that this event was originally scheduled for November 9^th.)

Garden Vegetables

During the summer months, the Pantry would appreciate donations of vegetables from your home gardens. Donations can be dropped off at the Pantry at Newman Church on the day of the Pantry openings (July 9, July 23, August 13, August 27, September 10, September 24) from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. We can only accept produce on the day of the Pantry openings due to limited storage and to assure the produce is at its freshest. Refrigeration will be available for items that require it.

Food donations: Items especially needed over the summer months are cereal, canned pasta, and macaroni and cheese.
