Meals on Wheels are available for homebound folks in the towns of Hartford, North Hartland, Norwich, and Thetford, Vermont.
Nutritious, hot meals are delivered by volunteers Monday to Friday, with frozen meals offered for weekends, holidays, or other days the Center’s kitchen is closed.
The suggested donation is only $6.00 per meal.
Our menu rotates monthly and is geared around typical, New England comfort food with occasional new items for variety. We can offer some alterations to accommodate food allergies or medical conditions.
