WSVN reports the boxes of produce, dairy and meats were bought from struggling farmers and distributed to those in need as part of the USDA's Farmers for Families program.
"Anything you name, we have it, it's a blessing," food pantry director Cassandra Sheppard told the station. "We even have diapers, so people are able to come and receive a lot of the things that they need in their families."
