We are a food bank for low-income households including seniors, veterans, disabled, homeless, families, individuals, and victims of disaster. Eligibility is determined on the current low-income amount of 100% of the Federal Poverty Level and residency. Participants can access groceries once a month or if homeless every two weeks. Must complete the application and provide required verifications. Our food bank is open on Mondays and Thursdays 1-3:45 pm.
We welcome fresh locally grown fruits and vegetables. We often need reusable plastic and paper grocery bags. We accept non-perishable foods as long as they are not expired, opened, dented or rusted.

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.
