JFS of Somerset, Hunterdon, and Warren Counties is a leading, forward-thinking, highly-respected and non-sectarian social service agency. Our doors are open to the whole community, serving clients of all backgrounds (race, religion, ethnicity, culture, socio-economic background, gender, sexual orientation, age, and physical ability). We shop and deliver groceries to 100 home-bound seniors. Some of them cannot afford fresh produce. We would appreciate fresh produce (potatoes, zucchini, squash, tomatoes, parsley, green beans, onions, garlic, apples etc.)

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.
