So that we can be more efficient, drive-through service continues Monday-Tuesday-Thursday-Friday. Wait in your car and a volunteer will check you in and provide the choice order form. Wait in your vehicle and another volunteer will bring the food to your car. No car? Enter through the sliding glass doors on the east side of the building, place your order and a volunteer will bring your food to you. On Wednesdays, everyone shops in person.
We will be CLOSED for major holidays. In bad weather, the Pantry will close only when there is a Level 2 or 3 Snow Emergency in Franklin County.

Broad Street Food Pantry
Mission:
OUR MISSION To honor our neighbors by serving as a reliable source for ingredients to create healthy meals.
In 2024, the Broad Street Food Pantry provided food to 18,513 households – a 22% increase from 2023. The need for food continues to grow every year as the gap between income and cost of living expenses continues to grow.
- Every day 182 individuals received meat, milk, eggs, shelf stable foods and a rainbow of fresh, nutritious produce.
- Each month we delivered meal kits to over 400 senior and working families who cannot come to the pantry.
In the words of a family who relies on the Pantry to make ends meet:
“Thank you so much for providing food to me and others. You have helped me so much and I am very thankful for it.”
