The City of Hartford's Food Pantry continues to be busy during the winter season.

Their dedicated team of volunteers are making a difference by providing food for families in the area. Clients need to provide proof of residency in the Hartford Union High School district to be served.

Hartford Food Pantry Board President Jason Wix told WTKM that's all they have to show before being served.

"Proof of residency, that's it. We want all of our clients to feel comfortable when they come in, and we want to help."

393 people were served at the Hartford Food Pantry in September of 2025, while 468 area residents received food in October of last year.

"Every week we get new families," according to Wix. "We are not going to turn anyone away. We offer all kinds of food, like meat and boxed dinners. Milk, eggs, cereal, flour and sugar are available with much more."

They are located at 24 N. Johnson Street, in the City of Hartford. Their hours include Tuesdays, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Wednesdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Thursdays, the hours run from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.
