In July 1982, Connecticut Food Bank began distributing food to 70 agencies throughout Connecticut from a 2,000 square-foot warehouse in New Haven at the corner of Ferry and Water Streets. At the beginning of 1983 it distributed 400,000 pounds of food.〔 Connecticut Food Bank operates two branch warehouses in Waterbury and Fairfield, and has two affiliated distribution centers in New London and Stamford. It serves nearly 700 food-assistance programs in Fairfield, Litchfield, Middlesex, New Haven, New London and Windham counties and distributes an average of 40 tons of food per day. Governor Dannel Malloy visited the Connecticut Food Bank warehouse in East Haven to discuss the organization’s mission with its staff and volunteers.
