The Henniker Food Pantry distributes food to those in need living in Henniker. The Henniker Food Pantry, in an effort to better serve the needs of our community, is now open for additional hours to distribute supplemental food.

If you have any questions call Holly Preble at (603) 428-6015 or Denise Getts at (603) 428-7554. The food pantry is located at 21 Western Ave. in the back of the Grange building, which is to the left of the Tucker Free Library. There is plenty of parking in the back. The Pantry is run by volunteers from Henniker.

 

DONATIONS:  The Tucker Free Library and the Henniker Food Pantry have teamed up!  The Tucker Free Library is providing a drop off location for food donations. Anyone interested in donating non-perishable food to the pantry can do so during regular operating hours.  In addition, the Henniker Congregational Church and St. Theresa’s Catholic Church collect food on Sundays. Call Holly or Denise for drop off at the pantry.
