SCHOHARIE COUNTY — Residents of Schoharie County are invited to take part in free drive-thru grocery distribution events hosted by the Schoharie Community Hub. All food is donated by local farmers, businesses, and community members. Organized by the Schoharie County Department of Health, in partnership with Community/Mental Hygiene Services, Veterans Services, Department of Social Services, Office for the Aging, and Public Transportation, the event aims to support local residents by offering pre-bagged groceries and fresh produce, with one bag available per household.
“This is about showing up for our neighbors,” said Dr. Nicole Blanchard, Director of the Schoharie County Department of Health. “Whether you're facing food insecurity or simply need a little extra support this season, we’re here to help—no questions asked.”
“The Schoharie Community Hub was created to support times like these. Schoharie is a small and resilient county whose strength seems to rest in our ability to lean on each other during times of struggle. The willingness of so many organizations to work together toward one shared mission reflects what makes Schoharie County so great. Being able to rely on our neighbors ensures that we can be prepared for any struggle by having the resources, commitment, and knowledge to pull us through,” said Dr. Blanchard.
Currently, two events are scheduled, with more to come as supplies last.
