Healthy food is an important part of staying well. That's the idea behind the “Food Is Medicine” movement.

Project Self-Sufficiency in Sussex County is helping put that idea into action.

Through its food pantry in Newton, the organization provides nutritious food to local neighbors who may otherwise struggle to put a healthy meal on the table.

Volunteers give their time, while donors provide the food and resources families need. Every contribution helps make nutritious choices more accessible to neighbors facing food insecurity.
