The Market Pantry at Catholic Charities St Teresa of Calcutta Campus
Pantry #11218
Food is a basic right. Through two food pantries, a Mobile Pantry Program, and Homebound Delivery Program, we offer life-sustaining food resources to those in need throughout 26 Nebraska counties. We empower clients when they come by offering The Market – a choice pantry, to pick out nutritious, culturally appropriate food for themselves and their families. Along with food, the pantry is a gateway for clients to receive other Catholic Charities services and resources. We serve a large, diverse population with many families that due to various cultural or religious reasons do not eat many of the traditional canned/boxed foods that are typically received in local food drives. Fresh food is essential for preparing healthy meals to these families.
It is also one of the least donated items to pantries. Household items are also appreciated. Our community members would benefit immensely from this program.

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.
