Our mobile food pantry distributions throughout Avery County are designed to reach residents in rural and underserved areas who lack transportation to our on-site distributions on Fridays. These are organized in partnership with local individuals or organizations who have connections to the community. Feeding Avery Families deliveries food once a month to the below locations. Each family receives about 80 pounds of shelf stable foods, perishables, fresh produce, and assorted groceries.
You must sign up in advance so we know how much food to bring! Contact our Program Manager Vanessa Phillips: vanessap@feedingaveryfamilies.org.
