When you see this bus moving, Sowing Seeds is heading out to help. 🚌

This is our mobile pantry — the same full-choice shopping as our Monday and Wednesday pantry days, no pre-packed box, carried to Kittrell, Centerville, and STEM each month, plus events and pop-up giveaways.

Centerville: second Tuesday, 1–2:30 PM. Kittrell: third Tuesday, 2–4 PM at the Kittrell Fire Department. STEM: fourth Tuesday, 2–4 PM.

Please share this so a neighbor in Franklin, Granville, or Vance County who needs it sees it. 💛

Five dollars can fill a gap on a shelf. 💛

This is Five Dollar Friday at Sowing Seeds NC in Franklinton — where every Monday and Wednesday, neighbors walk the shelves and choose what their families actually need, free of charge, no pre-packed box.

A $5 gift helps keep those shelves stocked for the next family who walks in. Small gifts add up to full shelves.

Give $5 here: https://donate.stripe.com/28o16s5rC1nNa0E146 — the page doesn't have a preset $5 button, so just enter 5 yourself.

And please share this, so a neighbor who can spare five dollars sees it. 💛

Fresh from our shelves — this is what dignity looks like. 🥦🍎

This is a real peek inside Sowing Seeds NC in Franklinton — not a stock photo, but the shelves our neighbors actually shop. Fresh broccoli and potatoes, apples and grapes, strawberries and sweet potatoes, ready to be chosen with care.

Here, nobody hands you a pre-packed box and sends you on your way. Every Monday and Wednesday, you walk the shelves yourself and pick exactly what your family needs — just like any grocery store, free of charge, no questions asked. Because feeding your family well should come with dignity, not shame.

If you have never visited because you were not sure what to expect, this is your invitation. Come see us Wednesday — our volunteers will greet you like family and help you find what you need.

Please share this so a neighbor in Franklin County who needs it sees it. 💛

🌱 **IMPORTANT UPDATE TO OUR PANTRY SHOPPING PROCEDURES** 🌱

At Sowing Seeds, our goal has always been to provide food assistance to as many families as possible while making the shopping experience welcoming and efficient for everyone.

As our pantry continues to serve our community, we've found that our limited indoor shopping space can sometimes create long wait times, especially when individuals are shopping for more than one household.

To help keep things moving smoothly, we are making a small change to our shopping procedures.

🛒 **WHAT'S CHANGING?**

**If you are picking up food for two households:**

✅ Both households will still need to check in, just as they do now.

✅ You will be able to shop inside the Storehouse for **ONE household only**.

✅ For the second household, you will receive a **prepacked bag of groceries** at our outdoor checkout area.

✅ Outdoor produce will continue to be available for both households, based on availability.

**WHAT'S NOT CHANGING?**

❤️ You can still pick up food for a second household.

❤️ Families are still welcome to visit our pantry as often as they need assistance.

❤️ We will continue to work with families who have special circumstances or need additional assistance.

This change will help reduce the amount of time spent inside our small shopping area, shorten wait times, and allow our volunteers to serve everyone more efficiently.

**Our mission hasn't changed. We're simply making adjustments so we can continue serving our community in the best way possible.**

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support!
