  • Description: The Garden Lakes Evening Food Pantry is located at Garden Lakes Missionary Baptist Church at 2200 Redmond Circle and is open Monday and Thursday evenings from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. This pantry is situated across town from The Bagwell Food Pantry and is open after business hours in an effort to serve both families with limited transportation and those who are working during the day. Through the generous work of many volunteers, visitors are served with about two weeks’ worth of groceries. This pantry serves an average of 30-40 families each day. Each family who comes through the pantry leaves with a basic bag of shelf stable food, including items such as canned goods, breakfast items, rice, flour and peanut butter, as well as fresh produce, fresh or frozen meat, bread and sweets. Families with children under 18 also receive additional bags of SNAP food. Our guests who come to us from the Cancer Navigators program or the AIDS Resources Council are given some additional nutritional items such as Boost, Ensure or Gatorade. Visitors who come to the pantry are served on a referral basis. Our referral network spans throughout Rome and Floyd County with most of our referrals coming from Good Neighbor Ministry, DFCS and several downtown churches.
