Fresh, low-cost food available to those in need

Fresh food is available at bargain prices through the Angel Food Ministries program at Project Self-Sufficiency. A variety of options are available; the price for a single box of food begins at $28.95. Boxes are designed to feed a family of four for about a week, or a single person for nearly a month. The menu changes each month, and special meals are available for senior citizens and those with food allergies. A typical weekly menu features beef, chicken, ham, fish sticks, pasta, marinara sauce, frozen vegetables, milk, eggs and more. There is no limit to the number of boxes an individual or family can purchase. The organization even takes food stamps. To place an order, call Project Self-Sufficiency at 973-940-3500 or order online with a credit card at www.angelfoodministries.com. Payment is made when the order is placed. The next deadline for placing orders is Sunday, August 21; boxes will be delivered and available for pick up at Project Self-Sufficiency between 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 27th. Orders will be processed at that time for the pick-up date the following month. Project Self-Sufficiency is located at 127 Mill Street in Newton.
