September is Hunger Action Month, and this year, with the ongoing pandemic, the importance of raising awareness and taking action against hunger in our community remains high. The Putney Foodshelf, which serves Putney and the surrounding communities, will be running a month-long food drive to do just that.

Throughout September, during the Fill the Foodshelf drive, shoppers at the Putney Food Co-op and Putney General Store will have an opportunity to select grocery items from an order form to add to their bill at checkout. The groceries will then be delivered to the Foodshelf and distributed to those in need. Donations to support the drive can also be made online. Click the Fill the Foodshelf button to donate.
