Free Farm Stand Is Open Through October — Come On By! Plus, What We Need And Don’t Need For The Pantry
Staff Report
Greater Park Hill News
Greater Park Hill Community’s emergency food pantry is open Monday and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 2823 Fairfax St. The pantry provides a three-day supply of food based on household size. Clients can visit up to 18 times per year.
We serve all Denver-area residents. No proof of address is required but you will need to register when you first visit and provide some basic information. The pantry is supported almost entirely by donations from individuals, businesses, nonprofits, and faith communities in Greater Park Hill.
If you are interested in donating fresh, frozen or non-perishable food, come by during our office hours. If you are making a large donation, it is preferable that you bring it directly to our office.
You can also drop off non-perishable items at the Park Hill branch library, at 4705 Montview Blvd., and at Cake Crumbs Bakery at 2216 Kearney St. during their regular business hours. Additionally, St. Thomas Episcopal Church, at 2201 Dexter St., has a collection box outside of the parish office where you can drop non-perishables anytime.
We have several refrigerators and freezers. If you plan to donate a large quantity of items that need to be refrigerated or frozen, please contact us first so we can make sure we have room.
If you are interested in hosting a food or fund drive, please contact us in advance to discuss details.
Please remember, when you are donating food, out of respect for our clients and their safety, do not include expired or opened packages. We often have a glut of expired food that our clients really do not want.
Thanks for your donations. For more information check out greaterparkhill.org/food-programs/emergency-food-pantry/.
