Harvest Tides Family Practice Food Pantry 🫶🏼

Our shelves are looking a little scarce these days and we could really use your help!

In 2023, we started our in-clinic food pantry after seeing more of our patients facing food insecurity. With compassion and teamwork, the pantry came to life with one simple principle:

“Take what you need, leave what you can.” 🤝

We’re proud to see our shelves frequently emptied — it means they’re being used by those who truly need them. But to keep supporting our community, we rely on your generosity. 💕

If you’re able to donate unopened, unexpired, non-perishable food or essential household items, we would be deeply grateful. Every item makes a difference.

Most needed right now:
🥫 Proteins: Canned tuna, salmon, chicken, beans, lentils, peanut butter
🍚 Pantry Staples: Pasta, rice, cereal, canned vegetables
🍲 Canned Meals: Soups, stews, easy-to-heat options
🍼 Baby Food & Formula: Please ensure unopened and within expiry
🧴 Personal Care: Toothpaste, soap, shampoo, deodorant, feminine hygiene
🏠 Household Items: Laundry detergent, dish soap, cleaning supplies

Thank you for helping us restock our pantry and continue caring for our community. ✨

With gratitude,
The Team at Harvest Tides Family Practice 💙
