Food Drive
Saint Eugene Catholic Church's Community Garden provides fresh produce to the Wendell United Methodist Church Food Pantry, and we are excited that over the past three years we've been able to provide over 1,000 pounds of food through our festival food drive. Please consider bringing any of the following items the day of the festival. A truck will be at the corner of Cypress and Third Streets to accept your donations. Thank you.
The Wendell UMC Food pantry provides a three-day emergency supply of food to families in need who live in Wendell. It also works with the Social Services office at the Eastern Regional Center in Zebulon and will help any family referred to us by them, regardless of where they live.
