FAQs About Our Food Services

Don't let uncertainty keep you and your family from food security. Below are some of the questions we get from first-time pantry visitors at FPN of Licking County. If you have other questions or concerns, please reach out to us. You can fill out our online form for a callback!

  • Do I qualify for services?

    Household income and food figures.

    Food Pantry Network of Licking County serves qualifying residents in Licking County, OH at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.

  • How often can I visit the food pantry?

    A household can visit each location once a week, with the exception of some specialty pantries that are monthly. A week is considered Monday - Sunday.

  • If I don't have transportation, how can I get food?

    You are welcome to send someone to pick up food for you and your family. They will need your information to serve as a Proxy. We are not currently able to offer food delivery.

  • What are the different types of pantries?

    FPN Market 

    A grocery style experience, customers can shop once a week for grocery items, produce, meat and dairy items. The market will be open for longer weekly hours. 


    FPN Choice Pantry 

    Customers shop for shelf-stable pantry items on a weekly basis. The customer will be able to select their food items based on their need at home. Pantries offer less hours throughout the week and cannot guarantee fresh produce.


    FPN Produce Pop-Up 

    The produce pop-up is a weekly distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables, with pop-up locations throughout different areas of Licking County. 


    FPN Drive Thru Pantry 

    Drive-thru food pantries allow customers to pick up food weekly, without leaving the car. Food distributed will be pre-packed and will be distributed with one box per car unless proof of multiple families in the car is shown to the volunteers. This is a great option for our neighbors who are not looking for the grocery shopping experience.

  • Can I come to the warehouse or office directly to recieve food assistance?

    The warehouse serves as a storage and distribution facility for our partner agency programs only. The FPN Market on Brice distributes to the community during the scheduled hours only.
