Food Pantries

If you or someone you know in Stow is in need of food assistance, several nearby food pantries are ready to help. The Sweden Food Pantry, located at the Sweden Community Church, offers nutritious food to individuals and families in need and is open the first and third Wednesday of each month. The Lovell Area Food Pantry, at the Lovell United Church of Christ, provides a variety of fresh and shelf-stable items and serves residents from Lovell and surrounding towns. The North Fryeburg Community Chapel Food Pantry also welcomes individuals seeking support and regularly updates hours and information on their Facebook page.

These pantries are here to support local residents with respect and compassion—no one should go without food. Visit each pantry’s website or contact them directly for up-to-date hours, eligibility, and what to expect during a visit.
