What We Do…

The Kent County Food Pantry provides supplemental food to persons with limited incomes. The Pantry’s goal is to ensure that all qualified clients in Kent County receive sufficient food to meet their basic nutritional needs.

Presently, in 2023-24, the Pantry continues to welcome people without referrals. Any residents who need food are welcome to come and receive the food they need. Food may be picked up twice monthly.

The Kent County Food Pantry will provide food and inform you of other assistance options in your community, as well as other information you need to access food for you and your family.

If you need food, come to the Pantry Tuesday and Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. until noon. If you do not have a referral, come to the Pantry and obtain your food. People are welcome to come every two weeks for their food. If someone is unable to come to the Pantry, another person can come and pick up food for you. You will just need to inform the Pantry Program Director at 410-778-0550.

No one who needs food is turned away.

When you come to The Food Pantry, you will meet our Program Director Deeann Jones. You will receive approximately 60 to 80 pounds or more of food depending on your family size. People have the opportunity to choose the foods they want for themselves and their family. The Pantry provides fresh meat and fish, butter and cheese, eggs, fresh produce and non-perishable food. Some toiletries are also available. Seasonal clothing including warm coats, hats and scarves are available.

Please also bring bags or boxes to carry your food.
