Food

We partner with local Veteran organizations to bring our Canteen lunch to you. Veterans of all eras are welcome to gather with family and friends to enjoy a delicious complimentary meal, thanks to our generous sponsors.

Learn the foundations of growing your own food, get support for starting a garden at home, or prepare and cook a healthy meal with other Veterans.

If you are in need of food assistance, please click the logo above to find information about local food pantries, community meal programs and food distribution sites located throughout Foodlink’s 10-county service area. 

You served our country proudly and honorably, and we want you to know that through our nutrition programs, you may be eligible for assistance to ensure you, your family, and fellow Veterans have nutritious meals.

Small food pantries are located at the Rochester Outpatient Clinic and the Canandaigua VA hospital. Help yourself to whatever you need. 

Veterans Outreach Center is committed to ensuring Veterans and their families have access to the supplies they need, completely free of charge. Our Quartermaster is open to Veterans and their families who need food, clothing, and hygiene items while supplies last.
