We are a food pantry in Columbus, OH. We serve all families who qualify for TEFAP assistance. We are currently serving around 1200 families per week in Franklin and Delaware counties. Our clients LOVE when we have fresh herbs and greens. Our most requested items are personal care/household items, e.g. paper towels, hand soap, shampoo/conditioner, and deodorant.
Because of federal and state funding cuts to TEFAP and the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, we are currently experiencing a season where we have access to 60,000 lbs LESS of fresh produce monthly. Any local farm/garden donations are greatly appreciated!

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.
