Community supports Archuleta Food Pantry Network

Posted

On Saturday, Aug. 31, our community members generously supported the Food Pantry Network with the donation of nonperishable food items during Healthy Archuleta’s food drive at City Market. 

More than 1,100 food items were donated and later shared with the seven food pantries in Archuleta County. 

Additionally, funds donated during the event will help support locally grown/produced food purchases for the Food Pantry Network. 

If you did not get the chance to participate in the food drive, you can make a donation of nonperishable food items at the UPS Store during their business hours.
