We are a food pantry that primarily serves residents of Fairfield County, CT but will provide food assistance to any CT resident in need of food. We would love fresh produce, kosher meat and chicken, diapers and personal care items
Please call before you come so we can ensure someone is available to assist when you arrive (203-921-4161 ext. 109). Street parking is often available directly outside our office. Please go to the second awning, ring the buzzer and someone will meet you. We have handcarts, if needed.
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.
