A feeding apparatus feeds sheets to an apparatus serving as a feeding destination. A sheet storage unit stores the sheets and is able to be pulled out from the feeding apparatus. A stacking unit stacks the sheets. A detection unit detects a connected state and a separated state. A control unit places the uppermost sheet stacked on the stacking unit at a predetermined height when the detection unit detects the connected state. A control unit lowers the stacking unit so as to move the uppermost sheet at the predetermined height on the stacking unit to a position lower than the predetermined height in accordance with detection of a change from the connected state to the separated state by the detection unit.
