Staffing/managing the Craftsbury-Albany weekly pop-up food pantry which began in collaboration with The Craftsbury/Albany Food for Neighbors group. The food distribution began in the spring with volunteer labor, donated food and cash donations from the Albany/Craftsbury Food Fund. Nearly 90 families are provided an array of veggies, dairy products, dry and canned goods and meat each Thursday from noon till 3:00 PM at the Church on the Common. In the fall the decision was made for both Craftsbury and Albany efforts to become affiliated with the Hardwick Area Food Pantry as satellite sites and ultimately a part of the Vermont Food Bank system. This partnership brings much needed resources including a paid manager, while allowing the Craftsbury pantry to retain its unique characteristics including providing as much locally produced food as possible.
