Princeton Pantry Food Shelf

Princeton Pantry is a community food shelf that has served Princeton and surrounding areas for over 40 years, beginning in the basement of Trinity Lutheran Church in 1981 before eventually establishing its own location. The nonprofit pantry distributes emergency food to residents in need, acquired through donations and food drives, and became the first food shelf in Mille Lacs County to achieve SuperShelf certification, a program emphasizing healthy and nutritious food options in partnership with the University of Minnesota Extension and Fairview Health.
