Harvest of Hope Food Pantry
Harvest of Hope, a ministry of Sanlando United Methodist Church, offers non-perishable food to anyone seeking assistance on Wednesdays. The pantry is accessed through the church lobby, located across from the forest parking lot. Entry is organized using numbers. When your number is called, please take a seat and wait until you are invited to the service window. For questions or assistance, speak with Harvest of Hope volunteers. Restrooms are not available, and smoking is not permitted on the premises. The campus also serves a school, so access for children and families needs to remain clear.
Last Wednesday
Last Wednesday welcomes visitors with complimentary gallery entry, drinks available for purchase, and a chance to explore the main garden after regular hours. Each month features guided tours of current exhibitions led by the Chief Curator or a free talk from a visiting expert in art or history to spark conversation. It is a friendly way to connect with a creative community at the Art & History Museums of Maitland.
