Food pantries are often the only source of free healthy and nutritious food in a neighborhood, and they often provide other critical resources such as nutrition education, health screenings, seasonal food baskets and back to school supplies. The Peret Food Pantry’s mission is to directly serve local residents who suffer from hunger and food insecurity within a specified area.
Each week, we are blessed to distribute nearly 5,000 lbs of food to individuals and families throughout Fairfield and New Haven County.
Pantry Logistics
Monday, Wednesday, Friday
8AM - 12PM
In order to coordinate a high quality distribution three times a week, a strong logistics team ensures that the pantry has all that it needs for its distribution days. Logistics include the pick up of food from partner super markets, set up and clean of the pantry and organization of donated items in order and in preparation for distribution.
