Find Our Free Food Market
What is the Free Food Market?
The Free Food Market is an initiative that brings our pantry services directly to neighborhoods where residents may face transportation barriers or other challenges preventing them from visiting our main pantry location.
Our Free Food Market is essentially a pantry on the go, stocked up with a selection of fresh produce, non-perishable goods, and other essential items. We set up farmers market style under tents and alongside community partners offering other free products and services. By bringing these resources directly to the community, we aim to ensure that no one has to go without food due to logistical constraints.
