Food distribution Friday at First United Methodist

The next Food Distribution & Senior Food Box Program at First United Methodist Church, 1526 E. Wooster St., Bowling Green, will be Friday,  May 7, from 10 to 11:30 a.m.

Free fresh produce and food will be available in limited quantities. This is for anyone in Wood County who meets the income guidelines or who has recently lost their job.  SeaGate Food Bank also is present at the same time to hand out Senior Boxes to those who meet their eligibility requirements.

There will be a drive-thru set-up this month to distribute food in accordance with current guidelines to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.  You are asked to remain in your vehicles in the church parking lot and wait for volunteer instructions.  The pantry will not open early, so early line-ups are discouraged.  Our volunteers appreciate your patience as we try to continue to serve those in need safely.

Also, the pantry has new hours, in addition to the first Friday of the month. Starting in April, the pantry is open as a drive-through only on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month from 5 to 6 p.m. and the second and fourth Saturdays of the month from 10 to 11 a.m.
