The Southern York County Pantry is a non-profit organization located in New Freedom, Pennsylvania. The Pantry is supported by the community, including local churches, businesses, schools and civic groups. ALL donations go to serve our community. Many of the families who come to us are working, but do not make enough to keep food on their table. We see our highest number of families requesting food assistance during the holidays.

We have a garage where donations can be dropped off outside of the times when volunteers are at the pantry. However, the garage is not climate controlled, so we ask that you call to let us know that you are dropping off. 717-235-6370
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.
