We also supplement our non-perishable inventory with personal care items and cleaning products.

What is it? A fun event with live music, games and a bouncy house for families and the community to enjoy an evening out while collecting non-perishable food for the Cheshire Community Food Pantry. Foodstock will be held on the Church Green from 5-7pm on Friday, June 29th.
Why? During the summer, children are out of school. Families already struggling to provide the necessities for their family now have to worry about providing an additional 2 meals per day for their children who usually receive reduced or free breakfast and lunch at school.
What foods are needed? Non-perishable donations of kid cereals, mac and cheese, canned pasta, hamburger helper, pop tarts, Nutella, jelly ,popcorn ,juice boxes, ramen, fruit cups, applesauce cups , granola bars and goldfish pretzels. All collected foods will be donated to the Cheshire Community Food Pantry.
Now that we are in our new building at 175 Sandbank Road and we have lots of freezer space and refrigeration. We can finally take non-expired perishable items as well as non-perishable goods. Consider a donation of Eggs, Butter, Milk, Cheese, Yogurt, Meat or Poultry. Many times the grocery stores have buy one/get one free – We’ll be happy to take the free one! We also have a vestibule with a refrigerator so you can drop off donations when it is convenient for you.
