We have been in Charlotte County for 28 years - completely volunteer run until the last 2 years. I am the only part-time paid person (15hrs a wk) and we put in approx 50 trying to gather the most and best food for our clients. We serve over 1000 each month. Thanks for your consideration, Dianne Munson, Executive Director
PS We assist with final shut off notices on utilities and emergency prescriptions if no other source is available

Want an email when this food pantry updates their hours or other information?
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.
