Thank you for you interest in supporting The George Washington University Store! We are the on-campus food pantry at GW, and we serve all GW students at any level, background, and age who are in need of food support. Nationally, 23% of college students are food insecure. At the GW Store, we hope to be a resource to any student who faces difficulty feeding themselves and their families during their time on campus. We saw over 600 visitors in 2023-2024, and serve a large international population. Our students love fresh fruits and vegetables, vegetarian meals, halal/kosher foods, and hygiene items. Thank you again for your generous support.

We are in the basement of the GW residence hall District House.
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.
