The Heavenly Food Pantry, located at the First Congregational Church on Main Street in Essex Junction, will be open to residents of Essex, Essex Junction, and Westford on Monday, September 11, from 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Beginning at 5:30, families arriving will be given a number, where they will wait in the sanctuary for their number to be called. They will then be registered and guided to the food pantry, where a volunteer will greet and escort them around, allowing them to make selections of their choosing. After food is gathered, it will be weighed (information for pantry use only) and another volunteer will bring the food to the family’s vehicle. Shopping carts will be made available for those within walking distance of the pantry. Face masks are optional for those entering the food pantry to ensure safety for visitors as well as volunteers. As usual, there are no income requirements to visit the food pantry and a variety of food is available to everyone; however, additional food is provided by the USDA once a month to eligible persons who fall below federally mandated guidelines.
Those not able to attend the pantry may call the Church office at 878-5745 between 9 a.m. and noon today or Monday to leave contact information (name, address, number of family members, phone number) so arrangements for delivery can be made. Follow-up calls to complete registration and schedule deliveries will be made Monday morning. Families are currently able to visit the pantry each time it is open the 2nd Monday of the month from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and the 4th Thursday of the month from 2-6 p.m. (except for November and December when it is the 3rd Thursday). The next food pantry distribution will occur on Thursday, September 28 from 2-6 p.m.

In June, Vermont’s Universal School Meal Act became law, allowing all Vermont public school students in grades K-12 access to free breakfast and lunch. We encourage all students to take part in the school nutrition program, as increased participation brings funding that allows us to offer high-quality foods, fresh produce, and the ability to purchase more locally! https://bit.ly/3qQaBUO 🍎🥞🍔🌮🍇🍕

Ice Cream Socials for the EES, FMS, & EMS students! 😁🍦🍦👍
EWSD faculty and staff are back and ready for the 2023-2024 school year. ⭐⭐ They started their day by coming together to watch the movie Listen Up, a musical co-written by Vermont teens. 🎥 Listen Up toured Vermont in the summer of 2021 and was made into a film. Within the film, teens share their stories that reflect some of the current issues facing youth, including mental health, racial justice, sexual identity, friendship, love, family, community, and climate change. Then, enjoyed some ice cream before preparing for students to return on Wednesday! 🙂👏 #EWSD
We are so excited to welcome everyone back to school starting on Wednesday! Share your first day of school photos with us by emailing them to communications@ewsd.org 😁📸
