GARDENERS: THANK YOU to all who shared their garden produce with the Food Shelf. The Colchester residents that use the services of the Food Shelf really enjoy fresh produce. We were able to provide the 917 pounds you donated along with the 500 pounds we were able to purchase at local farm stands through a grant from the Vermont Foodbank.

OUT OF DATE ITEMS: As some of you prepare to go south and are cleaning out your pantry, be sure to check the dates. We cannot put outdated items on our shelves.

DONATIONS: Thank you to all who donate so generously. The total donations for the third quarter were 5114 pounds (this included canned goods and produce). If you don't need a receipt, there is a PLASTIC CONTAINER UNDER THE CANOPY where canned goods can be left. Please only leave donations during open hours on Wednesdays. Our list of possible donation items for Thanksgiving will be available soon. Financial donations should be mailed to the PO Box address below.
