The Foothills Food Pantry can help families and individuals in need. Here you will be met by a caring intake worker who will interview you to find out if you meet the income guidelines for your family size. At this time you may be referred to other agencies that could help, such as food stamps and heating assistance. You may visit the Food Pantry, where volunteers will help you choose groceries that are the equivalent of 3 meals per day for five days for each of your family members. The food is donated by churches, various groups, individuals, and food drives, as well as purchased at reasonable prices from the Food Bank of Central New York. The Foothills Food Pantry is a place where one who is facing difficult circumstances is treated with respect and given assistance in a private and dignified manner.

            

The most convenient door is now available for you to exit with your food to your car.  Thanks to a grant from the Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties, and the work of Jeff Dittl, we have a new porch and new steps.
