Farragut Presbyterian to host ‘Posies for the Pantry’
On Saturday, April 18, Farragut Presbyterian Church will host the 8th Annual Posies for the Pantry fundraiser from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The event will be held rain or shine in the parking lot or fellowship hall at the church, 209 Jamestowne Blvd.
There will be spring flowers and multiple craft vendors available, as well as a “Bargain Shed” full of gently used garden tools, décor and free crafts for children.
Riverside Coffee, a local non-profit coffee shop, will be on hand, serving specialty coffees, assorted pastries, a variety of cold sandwiches and assorted beverages.
This event is a major fundraiser for the Shepherd of Hope Food Pantry organized by Farragut Presbyterian Church.
The food pantry is located at Faith Lutheran Church, FPC’s next-door neighbor on Jamestowne Boulevard, and is supported by four other Farragut churches: Faith Lutheran, Concord United Methodist, Farragut Presbyterian and First Baptist Concord.
FPC has been a partner in this ministry since the pantry opened more than 15 years ago, and the fundraiser provides much-needed funds to run the pantry.
In 2025, pantry partners, local businesses, church members and more than 100 volunteers came together to serve 5,239 people experiencing food insecurity in the community during 2025.
To volunteer at the pantry, contact Renée Stone at shephopepantry@gmail.com or call 865-966-9626.
