Please note:
Neighbor’s Home and Garden Center has closed. Please review the list below for an alternate drop off location.

Please remember when donating tomatoes to pick them slightly before they are fully ripe, and if possible place them in card board boxes. Cereal or granola boxes can be taped at the ends, and the center cut out. This helps keep them from bruising during transport.

We have updated the times for a few of our drop off locations. They are noted in blue.

Thank you for all you do to help provide fresh produce and herbs to families in need.
