fresh market

The fresh market pr0gram

The Fresh Market Program works in concert with the Food Pantry program to provide our clients with fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and baked goods.

​

​

How it works

The Fresh Market is stocked with donations from local bakeries, grocery stores, and donations from community members.

​

Families can choose a selection of items  in a "shopping-like environment" letting clients choose food they will enjoy.

​

Additionally, much of our food comes from a local purchasing program, designed to produce fresh local produce while supporting local farmers and providers

what's provided

Depending on availability, clients can take home a bag of breads, a bag of fresh fruits/vegetables, 2 to 4 items from the refrigerated section and a pastry or dessert selection for the family.
