Pantry Wish List
Higher grocery and gas prices have increased the number of families coming to the pantry and supplies are being challenged. Needs are toiletries, canned fruit, canned chicken and tuna, pasta and sauces, mushroom and chunky soups, peanut butter, jams, kids cereals, flour, sugar, condiments, toilet paper, and paper towels. The Solon Methodist Church garden provides the pantry with fresh produce through the summer as well as many local gardeners and Kroul Farms. Our families also have access to farm fresh eggs throughout the year.
