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, 5-6pm!

We distribute food and necessities every Sunday from 5-6pm. Available items include food, personal hygiene items, diapers, and more. No ID is required and donations are available for families, couples, and singles. Distribution takes place at Mendham Road Side Door of Peapack Reformed Church.

How can you help?

Our Food & Fund Drive starts today for P-G Food Pantry and runs through November 10th 

Help us provide meals for those members of our communities that are food insecure.

Nearly 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 8. 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.  

Here’s how the food drive works. Take one of the food list  to a store sometime during the next few weeks.  Purchase as many items on the list as you can and then drop the bag off at Fellowship Hall.  One grocery bag filled with all the food items listed below will feed a family of four for two days – that’s 24 meals. When we fill 209 bags, we  provide 5000 meals for families who are in need.
