Peabody Food Bank is operated as a ministry of Peabody Association of Churches. We provide food to approximately 45 families/individuals per month. Food is available to Peabody, KS residents only. Our distribution day is every 2nd Saturday of the month from 9-11am.
Donors may drop off donated food to any church, or to the Peabody Township Library.
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.
