We are a soup kitchen in Monticello, KY. We are feeding over 17,000 meals a month in Wayne County. We LOVE having fresh vegtables! We operate soley on donations. Toiletries are needed also for our homeless customers. We are so very grateful for all of the help we can get.
Call Veronica Whitehead @ 765-635-7018. We are open Mon-Fri from 8am-5pm.
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.
