How it works — three simple steps

  • 2. Choose pickup or delivery. Curbside pickup at our center on Route 93 in Beaver Meadows, or free home delivery if you have no transportation.
  • 3. Get your groceries. Staples, fresh produce from our Garden of Eating, dairy, meat, and more — at no cost, ever.

Food emergency?

If you or your children have nothing to eat right now, say so when you call or text. Because we own our building, we can respond to food emergencies around the clock — not just during pantry hours.

More than food

Economic strain rarely stops at the kitchen table. We have helped neighbors with housing and rental assistance, furniture, transportation, translation, employment leads, and referrals to physical and mental-health services through trusted partner agencies. If we can’t help directly, we’ll connect you with someone who can. Start the conversation — we’re good listeners.

Who qualifies?

Anyone in need. We don’t require proof of income, and our services are for people of every faith and background. Our motto isn’t “some people eat” — it’s everybody eats.
