The newest Little Free Food Pantry in town is at LTV Studios at 75 Industrial Road. Nonperishable food items and personal hygiene products are sought to stock it and replenish it on a regular basis.

High school students can earn community service hours by checking its contents, holding food drives, and keeping it filled.

"Take what you need, leave what you can. This is our community caring and sharing together," said the Neo-Political Cowgirls, an arts and advocacy organization that has sponsored several similar food pantry boxes around town, with the help of Bill Costello and Men at Work Construction.
