We are a Federal Indian Tribe that has a food bank that not only serves our community but the Amherst and surrounding counties communities as well. We believe food insecurity touches everyone in some way and we all should be working together towards the common goal of food security. We appreciate all food donations but we also accept toiletries too.
Please call before you come to make sure someone is available to take your donation.
ProducePedia
ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
