Food Pantry - Stanardsville, Greene County Food Pantry, Feeding Greene, INC
Feeding Greene offers food at no cost through 3 Main Programs: (1)Client Choice Program allowing families to "shop" for their own food much like in a normal grocery store, choosing only those items their families will eat. (2) Home Delivery Program providing free delivery to families with no or limited transportation in Greene County on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month. (3)BackPack Program providing healthy, easy to prepare food items so children in our local schools can prepare meals over the weekend during the school year. Summer boxes available for pickup during the summer months. Selections of food for these programs include frozen meats, canned fruits and vegetables, beans, dry goods such as pasta and rice, eggs, peanut butter, beverages, deli items, milk, cheese, and other dairy products, and a wide selection of fresh produce. We are aware of how our food choices impact our health and provide nutritional information on the food we offer and label our food according to its nutritional value. We have a Tasting Station and offer samples of healthy recipes every week. We also have collaborations with many other agencies to provide other resources such as help with SNAP applications, Fresh SNAP education, Nutrition Classes, help with choosing health insurance plans, mental health support and accessing free medical equipment. We believe that it takes more than food to help families become self-sufficient.
