Fresh Food Farmacy

Located in Pittston, PA, the Fresh Food Farmacy is dedicated to providing fresh, nutritious food and comprehensive health education to individuals facing food insecurity and health challenges. Our mission centers on empowering participants to take charge of their health through informed dietary choices and holistic lifestyle modifications. We partner with healthcare providers to identify patients with HBA1C levels exceeding 8, offering them a tailored ‘prescription’ for our services. Enrolled participants receive weekly provisions of healthy meals—enough to nourish their families for five days—alongside essential clinical support that includes diabetes education and consultations with qualified dietitians and pharmacists. At the Fresh Food Farmacy, we believe in the transformative power of food and education to improve health outcomes, foster independence, and support our community’s wellbeing.
