Prairie Grove 24/7 Emergency Food Pantry

06/17/2026

Kids are out of school for the summer, which means parents need to buy a lot more groceries for the week. If you are able to donate foods like bread, peanut butter and jelly, macaroni and cheese ( especially the kind with the sauce that doesn't require milk), granola bars, fruit cups, etc, they will be very appreciated. .

Please don't stop your car on the street to get out and use the pantry. Please also do not stop in the lane that comes out of the parking lot behind the building. We do not want to have to close this little pantry, but there is starting to really be a big problem with people parking right in the street, or pulling over just a little bit (not in a parking spot, still in the road) where they're blocking traffic while they get out.
Edited to add: we are not saying that we are intending to close the little pantry anytime soon. We hope that we can keep it there to help bless others for many years to come. So far we've kept it going for 7 years. But regardless, this is a safety issue. The pantry is on private property. . Multiple times over the past few months we have seen people stop in the road and get out to check the pantry. We just don't want an accident to happen, and we also do not want something that's supposed to be a blessing to turn into a nuisance for others who are trying to drive down the road.

We are so thankful! They dropped off so many great items this afternoon. I've put a lot of them out, and the rest will help us get through the next couple of months trying to keep the pantry stocked. Just during the 30 min we unloaded items, 6 people stopped to get food. That's how often the little free pantries are used, and that's why donations from the community are essential and such a blessing.

Big thanks to the Prairie Grove Junior Civic League for collecting some of our most needed items for the little food pantry. They put boxes at some of the businesses downtown and collected food items for several weeks. We really appreciate them!

BIG thanks to the kids and families from Washington County Equestrians 4-H Club! They collected and dropped off lots of nonperishable food for the pantry, enough to fully stock it and put extra inside to be put out throughout the weekend. We really appreciate their generosity.
( and just to give you an idea of how often the pantry is used, three different people stopped by for food in the 30 minutes It took for us to unload and stock this).
