Manna House has served Pope and Yell counties of Arkansas for over 20 years. Our mission is to serve the nutritional and spiritual needs of all food insufficient families regardless of age, gender, finances etc... If you are in need of food, we are open 5 days a week from 10:00-Noon. We served 48,000 individuals in 2023 and allow our clients to come every 14 days for food. We do love healthy fresh foods such as produce and eggs. If you are cleaning out your pantry, we'd love to take your non-perishable items.
If you'd like to drop off food, you may call for us to meet you if we aren't open or come between the hours of 8:30-noon. We can also arrange to pick up donated items.
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.
