Enfield Loaves & Fishes is a local area Soup Kitchen providing hospitality to all those in need by offering meals, aid, and companionship at no charge. We serve Enfield, CT and surrounding areas. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, incorporated in 1983.
Our purpose is to feed and aid the disenfranchised. Enfield Loaves & Fishes provides nutritious food, aid, and comfort to make a difference in the lives of individuals who live with food insecurity.
Enfield Loaves & Fishes serves every meal with dignity, respect, and compassion. We believe food is an inalienable right, and serve it in an environment that recognizes the humanity and worth of each member of our community.
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.
