NEW HAVEN — A volunteer effort is under way to establish a free food pantry in New Haven. There are similar pantries in Monkton, Lincoln, Bristol and Starksboro. 
This will be a place where people who are struggling with food insecurity will be able to access nonperishables to feed their family. 
Organizers are currently searching for exterior paint for this project. If you have exterior primer, paint or other painting supplies available please reach out to Darcy Tardie at [email protected].
