Food banks in metro Atlanta are still feeling the pressure of rising food costs as they prepare for the fall and winter seasons
Groups like Hosea Helps and Emmaus House food pantry say they are seeing more requests for food from families in the area.
Adam Seeley says there are plenty of resources available at Emmaus House, but the number of people they can help is limited.
“Our appointments fill up about as soon as we can open them up for each week, so it’s pretty tough right now,” he said.
Hosea Helps is a bigger food distributor on the south side of Atlanta.
