THE WHOLESOME ROOTS PANTRY STORY

Food insecurity is a growing problem in the Triad – but an even greater problem is how many are lacking wholesome nutrition. Food that is fresh, organically grown, minimally processed, and free of artificial ingredients can be very challenging for people experiencing financial hardships to include in their diet. Our family has witnessed this firsthand and has always been passionate about encouraging people to grow their own food or make healthier food choices. We know that nutritious food is often expensive, so we aspire to reach folks who cannot access such provisions otherwise. 

​

Everyone deserves healthy food to carry them through life’s demands and challenges. Just like a vivacious tree, it’s the roots that delivers the sustenance. That’s why we exist. Our goal is to help those in need have these wholesome roots, giving them a path to a healthier lifestyle.

​

There is too much waste in various areas of food production, consumption, and even distribution, so we strive to bridge that gap by making nutritious food available to people in all stages of life. We presently provide for families, pregnant moms, the elderly and disabled, low income housing districts, rural food desserts, and those recovering from various addictions.

​

Partnering with health food stores ensures that our applicants receive wholesome food options. By evaluating true dietary needs and preferences, we deliver custom-made boxes of groceries or host free "shopping" events. It is our pleasure to provide healthy food for those in need, and we hope you partner with us in our mission to make a difference in the community around us.
