Little Free Food Pantry is Operational

Crescent Grange has installed a Little Free Food Pantry in the Grange parking lot just south of the readerboard to help address food insecurity in the Joyce area. Non-perishable food items are available for people to adopt.  Please take what you need and leave what you can for others. Please do not donate items that are past their expiration date, as these must be discarded. 

Update: If the pantry is full and you have items you wish to donate, look for a box on the porch of the Grange Hall designated for donated food items. Thank you!
