LHR is a food pantry that hosts a free choice market for any Loudoun County resident in need. Currently, all LHR distributions are by appointment only - please visit www.loudounhunger.org for more information. We operate produce hub and accept donations of fresh and whole food in addition to regular donations.
Appointments for food can be made on our website, Loudounhunger.org or by calling 703-777-5911.
Donations can be made around the rear of the building at the garage bay door. We provide tax receipts for donations. We can also pick up large donations with coordination by calling 703-777-5911.
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.
