The Greater Area Pantry is a program offered by various local churches to provide food and personal and household items to people in need. Items typically available include: canned goods, fresh vegetables, frozen beef/chicken/venison, as well as household and personal items. The food pantry is coordinated by 12 local congregations. This is a participating TEFAP (The Emergency Food Assistance Program) food pantry. Enrollment into TEFAP is confidential and requires proof of address and identification. Individuals participating in the FoodShare, School Nutrition Program, WIC, or Senior Meals programs may participate in TEFAP without impacting their ability to qualify for those programs.
