OTHER WAYS TO HELP
There are several ways to donate food and toiletries to the Stow Food Pantry.
- Drop off donated items in the Food Pantry container at the post office and at Shaw’s.
- Bring donations to the Food Pantry at the back of the Community Center between 3:30 and 4:30 p.m. on the stocking dates.
Local farmers and gardeners are welcome to bring along their spare produce at these times. - Each fall the post office holds an annual Postal Pantry Food Drive. During a one week period, residents can place one item in their mailbox for pick up by their carrier.
- Organize a neighborhood food drive.
