A food drive organized by the Weston Police takes place on Sunday, November 15 from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.

The drive is held in the Police Department garage at 56 Norfield Road, aiming to make sure shelves at the Weston Food Pantry are fully stocked with non-perishable food items.

These items are particularly needed:

• Oatmeal and steel cut oatmeal (in canister)
• Pancake mix
• Syrup
• Broths (beef, chicken, turkey)
• Canned spinach
• Fruit cocktail
• Canned Mandarin oranges
• Canned peaches
• Applesauce
• Rice (all kinds)
• Snacks (goldfish, pretzels, etc.)
• Sugar
• Flour
• Spices
• Cooking oil
• Juice
• Coffee

A number of Weston households qualify to use the food pantry, which is run by volunteers. The Weston Food Pantry is one of the few where families can select specific items they need, instead of receiving pre-packed bags.
