National Bean Day might be in January, but we need to think about beans in July. The food pantry item for this month is canned beans. Wait! We are not talking about canned green beans. We’re talking about legumes: kidney beans, lima beans, cannellini beans, great northern beans, black beans, pinto beans, refried beans…the list goes on and on and on.

You pick your non-green beans and bring them to the box in the hallway. Think of all the protein-rich goodness we’ll be collecting.

If you’d like to do more than just bring in beans, you can help out at the pantry on these dates:

• July 6th at 10 AM
• July 12th at 5 PM
• July 14th from 8:45-noon; distribution day!
