Small gardens are an easy way to feed our community! This beautiful Swiss chard and lettuce came from one small planter at the Council on Aging. Planted by seniors in their “Let’s be handy” class, this food will go directly in the community pantry locations for those who need it most.
Donations are critical to keeping the community pantry stocked and community gardens planted. Find ways to donate here: www.communitypantryks.com

Seniors interested in helping with other gardening projects check out the Council on Aging’s Let’s be Handy class on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month from 1-3pm.

We recently learned that some individuals have been taking canned goods from our Northside pantry location(Metropolitan st) and throwing them at nearby homes.
This is deeply upsetting, not only because it creates a nuisance for our neighbors, but because this food is intended for individuals and families in our community who are facing food insecurity.
Every item placed in the pantry is donated by generous community members who want to help others. Seeing that food wasted in this way is discouraging and takes resources away from those who truly need them.
We are asking our neighbors and community members to help us keep an eye on the pantry. If you witness anyone vandalizing the pantry, misusing the food, or causing damage, please report it to local law enforcement and notify us directly.
Our goal is to continue offering this resource to anyone in need, and with your support, we can ensure the pantry remains a safe and respectful community asset.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support the Community Pantry Project and the neighbors who help us protect it. Together, we can make sure this food reaches the people who need it most.
