We are A Choice Food Pantry

We are a choice food pantry. We provide a grocery store feel and experience to the community. This allows our clients to choose the food items they prefer versus a prepackaged box of items they may not like or use.

Qualifying individuals can shop for food once a month. Quantity of food  is based on the size of their family.

Our FREE pantries are open to clients during the following hours:

  • Monday / Tuesday / Thursday
    • 9:00am – 10:45am
    • 1:00pm – 2:45pm
  • Evenings – Every Tuesday
    • 5:00pm – 6:45pm
