The Spooner House Food Pantry
Spooner House at 30 Todd Rd — (203) 225-0453 — provides emergency pantry service designed to sustain a household until the next available distribution: community foundation profiles describe access seven days a week with three days' worth of food per visit. Office hours run Monday–Friday 9 a.m.–5 p.m., so weekday calls reach staff directly.
Food, Shelter, and Support Together
