Will County Executive Hosts Free Produce Pop-Up in Monee

Will County Executive Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant is organizing a pop-up event in Monee to provide residents with free, fresh fruits and vegetables. This drive-up distribution is scheduled for September 23, 2023, at the New Hope Christian Community Church, located at 4700 W. Court St. The initiative is aimed at supporting local households during a time of rising food prices.
“During a period of rising food prices, these events help connect local households with healthy food options and resources about local organizations that can provide assistance,” County Executive Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant stated in a recent announcement. She emphasized the importance of making it easier for residents to access food resources within their community.
The distribution of fresh produce will occur from 15:00 to 16:30, or until supplies run out. Registration is not necessary, and the event is set up as a drive-up service. Attendees will receive instructions on how to line up their vehicles for an efficient distribution process. Food will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis, ensuring that as many residents as possible benefit from this initiative.
For those seeking further details about the event, they can contact the county office at 815-740-4678 or via email at [email protected]. This event underscores the county’s commitment to enhancing community well-being and providing essential resources to residents in need.
