I am a home base pantry that is set up for clients to come and shop. In fact I was the very first one 5 almost 6 years ago. How we work is you come in and shop for what you need for a week . Just like a store. You can come back weekly. We serve our military and families and seniors that make that $1 to much to qualify for government help or food banks.
But we also serve anyone in need. No paperwork needed. If you need food come on by. lastly we give 10percent to the homeless ministries to make meals for the homeless community. In a week we serve out of the pantry 50 or more. In donations around 250 to 500 depends how we make it stretch.
Call before delivery and if I need to I can pick up 210-962-2401
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.
