Gleaning
Each day, our staff collects approximately 1,200 pounds of food from local restaurants and supermarkets—food that would otherwise go to waste. Instead, we give it to those in need, making sure that meals reach our community rather than ending up in landfills.
Food Pantry
Our food pantry has a variety of grocery items, including fresh foods like eggs, milk, cheese, vegetables, and bread. You’re welcome to stop by and take what you need. The pantry operates every Wednesday of each month and gives out about 2,500 pounds of food weekly.
Please note that pantry offerings depend on local donations and may change weekly.
Annex Schedule
Wednesdays 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. or until supplies last.

FAQ
There are no eligibility requirements for participating in our Food Pantries, which are open to anyone who needs assistance with food.
Staff will ask your name and if you have Calfresh, this is to collect accurate data on how many people receive food bags and see if you’d like further information on food support resources.
