Greetings to all:
We have had a busy summer providing food to 15 - 20 families each week!! Thanks to the generosity of our community members, we have been able to provide bread, meat, eggs, and vegetables, in addition to our shelf-stable goods. Many thanks to The Mt. Vernon Food Pantry, The Augusta Food Bank, and the Winthrop Food Bank for supporting us with many of the foods listed above. We also want to thank our Readfield Community Garden folks who have added fresh-picked veggies to our boxes each week this summer.
Our hours will change slightly this fall as students will be back to normal school hours.
FALL PANTRY HOURS
Thursdays 3:30 - 4:30
