Doron Tyler Antrim reports in The Daily Mail Matthew 25 Food Pantry is moving, and asking for donations of money and labor to repair its new space in a vacant former county office building on Union Street in Catskill. This will be the pantry's third location since it was founded in 2009. It is currently located at 298 Main Street. The pantry will enter into a 10-year lease with Greene County for the new location at the cost of $1 per year. In an interview with Antrim, pantry Executive Director Patti Dushane said the new space is "a mess," but expects to transition into the Union Street space by June 1. In addition to food, Matthew 25 offers clothing, outerwear, shoes and has a book exchange. It is open 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., Sunday, and 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., Wednesday. Read the full story in The Daily Mail.
