This pantry serves the hundreds of individuals and their families who take care of the horses at Belmont Park & Aqueduct Racetrack as well as community senior citizens.
We can arrange to pick up food from you. For on-site donations please let us know when you are coming if outside of regular hours of Monday - Friday 10 - 4. Our weekly food pantry is Thursdays at 11 AM.
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.
