How to Pick-up Food 

We strive to make food pick-ups easy!  

  • We can register you in person at your appointment or over the phone in a few minutes 
  • Once registered you just need to call ahead to schedule your appointment 
  • Please call at least one week or more in advance of your preferred pick-up day 
  • We schedule food pick-up appointments on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30  am – 1:30 pm.  We allow each person or family ½ hour to arrive and shop for food 
  • We offer “self-shopping” so you can pick your own food items 
  • Individuals/families are allowed to visit the Food Shelf once per month. If you have extenuating circumstances or are in need of food urgently, please contact the Food Shelf to make a special arrangement.
