Second Harvest Mobile Pantry Scheduled in Wartburg for Morgan County Residents on Aug. 20

A Second Harvest Food Bank mobile pantry is scheduled to serve Morgan County and Wartburg residents on Thursday, Aug. 20, 2026, with distribution beginning at 9 a.m.

The scheduled service provides a specific food-access resource for households in the county, including residents who may be facing food insecurity. The listing identifies the effort as “Mobile Pantry Support: Morgan County / Wartburg” and attributes it to Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee through Volunteer East Tennessee.

What residents should know

The available event listing confirms the date and start time but does not provide the full distribution address in the accessible result. It also does not state the pantry’s eligibility rules, the number of households expected to receive food or the amount of food planned for distribution.

That means residents should confirm the event details and any participation requirements through the event listing before making travel plans. The approved information identifies the service as a food distribution, rather than a routine social-calendar event, but it does not establish that every Wartburg resident is eligible.

Wartburg service location

The Morgan County Extension Office is located in the Morgan County Courthouse at 415 N. Kingston Street, Courthouse Room 207, Wartburg, TN 37887. The University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture’s Morgan County page identifies Wartburg as the county-seat service location and provides county-related resources and news for residents.

That courthouse address establishes the location of the Morgan County Extension Office. The available pantry listing does not confirm that the mobile pantry distribution will take place at that address, so residents should not assume the extension office is the event site without further confirmation.

Why the scheduled date matters

For Wartburg and Morgan County households seeking food assistance, the fixed date and start time offer a concrete opportunity to plan around a local service. The event is scheduled for Aug. 20, 2026, at 9 a.m.; no later deadline or follow-up distribution date is included in the approved records.

The distribution is identified as a Second Harvest service listed through Volunteer East Tennessee. The available records do not say that the City of Wartburg or Morgan County is funding the event.
