The effort provides free food, including bread, vegetables, and canned goods to those who need it.
Tammy Armour, a Grand Prairie native, regularly donates food to Pan African Connections outdoor food pantry. Her food will sit alongside a new freezer and commercial fridge that local organizations and community members gave to Pan African Connection.
After the original fridge was stolen, multiple individuals and organizations pitched in for the community pantry. Roots Food Group, a for-profit healthy food organization, donated a freezer and about 280 frozen meals including French toast, chicken tikka masala and zucchini noodles. As these organizations came together, Pan African Connection and Roots Food Group began to partner with others to create a 1-acre community garden in Lancaster by the end of this year. Kovacevich said that they will begin planting in the coming weeks and will use that produce to replenish the community pantry.
