Are you in need of food assistance?
Springs Food Pantry is here to help you.
Every Wednesday we distribute fresh produce, dairy, eggs, frozen meat and dry or canned goods like cereal, rice or beans.
Distribution amounts are based on your family size.
There is no charge for this charitable service.
How does it work?
Food distribution and pick up is every Wednesday, from 1:30pm to 6:30pm at 5 Old Stone Highway, East Hampton, NY 11937.
Please follow the directions of our volunteer traffic guides so we can ensure safe and efficient distribution. When you are directed, you can park your car in the church lot and go inside. There you will check in with your Springs Food Pantry ID. Our volunteers will then help you carry out your grocery bags to your car. In the event we run out of food, don’t worry - we will provide you with prepaid grocery store gift cards that you can use for your own shopping.
Registration
All recipients need to register with Springs Food Pantry. In order to register, you must fill out one of our registration forms. You must also provide identification for each of your family/household members, such as Driver’s License, Passport, insurance card, school record, or birth certificate. And, you must provide proof of residence in Springs such as a copy of lease agreement, utility bill, or tax bill. Please note, a driver’s license is NOT proof of address. If you do not reside in Springs, there are a number of other local food pantries that may be able to assist you.
Once you have provided the completed registration form, ID’s and proof of residence, you will be issued a Springs Food Pantry registration card. Please bring this card with you each time as we use it to check you in. It’s also a great idea to take a picture of your card for your mobile phone, so you can show that in case you forget your card. Recipients will need to register/re-register each year in December/January to ensure accuracy of residence and family/household members.
