Pantries may limit the number of times they serve the same recipient in a given time period. All pantries strive to provide balanced food bags that include all food groups. Typically, the food is nonperishable, i.e. canned goods & dried beans, pasta & rice. Some pantries provide three day supplies of food for people in crisis situations put together according to a suggested menu & based on family size. Other pantries focus on perishable foods such as produce, dairy & bread & include a limited number of nonperishable items. Most agencies require some form of identification from recipients & each person in their household. Food Pantries may require recipients to call ahead for an appointment. A small number of pantries ask people to get a referral from another agency. Please share the information about pantry requirements included with the pantry description with the people you are helping.
