Food Shelf Distribution Saturday

Past event

Good Shepherd Lutheran Church – 273 Route 15 in Jericho

Our next food distribution takes place this Saturday, August 21st, at Good Shepard Lutheran Church on Route 15 in Jericho from 9 AM to 10:30 AM. To help with traffic flow, local families (Essex, Jericho, and Underhill) are invited to arrive at 9 AM, and families from other towns are invited to arrive starting at 10 AM. Newcomers are welcome to register on the spot.

This a drive-thru distribution so all items will be placed in your vehicle by masked volunteers, and you can remain in your vehicle.

We are distributing pre-packed bags of food staples, fresh produce, meat, cheese, eggs, cheese, and butter. We also have diapers and pet food in limited supplies. Weather permitting, there will be tables outside with miscellaneous food items.

The EJU Food Shelf is grateful to all the local churches, individuals, businesses, and farmers who have donated time, produce, personal care items, money and non-perishable groceries to the food shelf.

We are one of over 200 network partners with the VT Foodbank.
