We are thrilled to introduce our new food pantry, a vital resource designed to support those in our community facing food insecurity. This initiative is a testament to our collective effort to ensure that no one in our neighborhood goes hungry. We will support Alicia, Swifton and Minturn residents. We love fresh healthy produce that a lot of families don't have access to.
Please call before you come or we can arrange for picking up from you if you'd like.
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.
