The farmers usually come in with excess crops that they can t get rid of. Other everyday people come in and donate goods too. Churches and other service groups in the community are also known to donate to the pantry. The goods are distributed in a certain way. People can t just come in and take just anything.
Families sign up for boxes that can feed up to six people.
These boxes always contain a few canned vegetables, a bean, soup, noodle, sauce, and a container of peanut butter. All of these good are free. When the pantry has extra goods the families can choose a few of these things to put in their box. Usually these extras include macaroni and cheese, granola bars, candy, tea, microwave popcorn, and cereals. The Food Pantry also carries products like shampoo and soap.
