Little Free Pantry on Skokorat in Seymour shares weekly wish list

Weekly Wishlist

SEYMOUR - Pantry stewards thank EVERYONE who has been dropping off and shipping donations!

The Pantry remains insanely busy. Our total food distributed last month was close to 2400 lbs! That is almost 1000 lbs more than any previous month. It has been incredibly challenging to keep food on our shelves which is why we REALLY mean it when we say every little bit matters.

Our most needed items are:

PROTEINS (tuna, chicken, salmon, nuts)

microwave meals (Hormel, chef Boyardee, instant Mac and cheese)

pasta & sauce

canned vegetables

snacks (popcorn, crackers, granola bars)

We will also gladly accept fresh produce, including fro your gardens.

Hygiene products like tooth brushes, tooth paste, soap, pads/tampons, and shampoo are also always needed and deeply appreciated.

You can drop off items in person by either placing them directly into the Pantry or into the black donation bin by our garage door.

You can also order through our Amazon Wishlist https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/31DQMG6QQ65HX.... OR you can have items shipped or delivered to 58 Skokorat St.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!

As always, thank you SO MUCH for all your support! We love and appreciate you!
