Providing food and basic necessities for families in the Peapack-Gladstone area.
The keystone of the Peapack Reformed Church is community and we are passionate about providing love and support to our neighbors in need. The Peapack-Gladstone Food Pantry is a hub where community members can come to get food, personal hygiene items, and additional basic necessities, free of charge. Donation supported and volunteer-run, the Peapack-Gladstone Food Pantry is here to help.
Food Pantry Open Every Sunday, 4:30-5:00pm!
We distribute food and basic necessities every Sunday from 4:30-5pm, with a church sponsored coffee hour beginning at 4 PM. No ID is required and donations are available for families, couples, and singles. Distribution takes place inside the church fellowship hall. Patrons are welcome to park in the church parking lot.
How can you help?
Help us provide meals and basic necessities for members of our community who are facing food insecurity.
Nearly 1.1 million people in New Jersey are food insecure, a 22% increase over the previous year. This includes more than 260,000 children – about 1 in 7. Nationwide, the extra amount of money that people facing hunger say they need to have enough food has reached its highest point in the last 20 years.
Food insecurity exists in all 21 New Jersey counties and in every county and congressional district across the country.
The Peapack-Gladstone Food Pantry relies on the generosity of our community to continue serving those in need.
