The Flemington Area Food Pantry provides food and personal care items to needy Hunterdon County families regardless of race, religion, or ethnic background. It is located across the parking lot from the front entrance of the Flemington WalMart. Food insecurity is a national problem. In Hunterdon County, of 126,000 residents, an estimated 5,000 have income below the poverty level. Many of these residents, including children and infants, don’t get enough to eat without some form of assistance. The Pantry provides supplemental groceries to approximately 1,600 income qualified Hunterdon County families. Pantry clients are often friends and neighbors who may be underemployed, hard-working adults, veterans, families with children, and seniors who simply cannot make ends meet and who go without food for several meals or sometimes several days at a time. Some have lost jobs, and some are homeless. They are of all nationalities and ethnic backgrounds, but have one thing in common: they don’t have the resources to buy the food they need to subsist.
