FISH Food Pantry

The FISH Food Pantry provides supplemental food to those individuals and families who qualify using guidelines established by the Emergency Food Assistance Program. The FISH Food Pantry has always depended on and benefited from the generosity of donors in the community, from food drives of school children and groups, organizations, churches, firemen, police officers, families and Post Office workers. Area farms and farmers and grocery store owners/managers also deliver dairy, meat and vegetable produce and foodstuffs, and when shelves are empty, food items are purchased at the Connecticut Food Bank. There were 568 families, representing 2696 individuals, who depended on the FISH Food Pantry for their food needs. The pantry is open four days a week. Monday: 10 am - 3 pm, Tuesday: 10 am - 3 pm, Wednesday: Closed, Thursday: 10 am - 3 pm (late hours 5 pm - 6:30 pm by appointment only, by calling 860-482-7300 by Tuesday at 3 pm), Friday: 10 am - 2 pm
