Operation Love Ministries

Our pantry distributes food every week to hundreds of hungry neighbors. We are always accepting food donations, either for the regular pantry distribution (if dropped off Mon, Tu, Th 9-11:30 or 1-3:30) OR for the free food box and produce stand located to the north east of our building off of the alley way (this can be dropped any time!)

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!

State Cooperative Extension Web Sites

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.
