In the past few years our Monmouth County Food Pantries have seen a dramatic increase in need. Last year one week before Super Storm Sandy hit the Red Bank Crop Walk collected over 13,000 pounds of food which was distributed at the time of intense need. 

The Red Bank Crop Walk is proud that each year we have managed to break records for food collection. Our Shrewsbury Volkswagen dealership was a proud collection center for these items both last year and this year. We appreciate everyone who got involved with the Red Bank Crop Walk and help to give back and provide for our community!
