Description:
****NOTE: SEARCHING THE 2-1-1 DATABASE BY "FOOD PANTRIES" WILL BRING UP OTHER PANTRIES THAT ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH SECOND HARVEST. ADDITIONALLY, NEAR THE TOP OF THE SECOND HARVEST WEBSITE, BEFORE CHOOSING A COUNTY, YOU WILL SEE A SECTION FOR "UPCOMING MOBILE DISTRIBUTIONS". THESE ARE NOT REGULARLY SCHEDULED, SO WILL VARY FROM MONTH TO MONTH, BUT CHECKING IT MAY GIVE YOU MORE REFERRALS*****

*Second Harvest does not always answer their calls, and unanswered calls send callers to an automated menu. The automated menu tells callers they can press 1 to find out where they can get help today. When a caller does this, the next menu gives them the option to dial 1 again to reach '2-1-1 of the Big Bend for help'. (In case callers are confused about why they have reached us after calling the Second Harvest.)
