Organizers ask that those looking to receive food to have an empty trunk before lining up so food can be safely placed inside the vehicle. Also recipients are asked to not line up before 9 a.m. Traffic will be directed into the Nutter Center parking lot from Colonel Glenn and North Fairfield, and cars will be directed towards the back of the property.
“As people are still working to get back on their feet, we are excited to provide the support Greene County residents need during this unprecedented time,” Michelle L. Riley, CEO of The Foodbank said in a media release Monday.
For further details and questions about the distribution, you’re asked to call The Foodbank’s emergency phone line at 937-949-4096.
