Pop-Up Food Pantry
Our "pop-up" pantries help food-insecure households throughout rural Dunn County who lack transportation or access to the food pantry services in Menomonie.
​
Fresh produce, meat, dry goods, and dairy is distributed in pre-packaged boxes 1-2 times/month.
​
​See Pop-Up Schedule.
Senior Commodity
We distribute monthly Senior Commodity Boxes to low-income seniors at risk for food insecurity. CSFP (Commodity Supplemental Food Program) aims to supplement seniors (60+) with nutritious food.
These meal boxes typically include canned fruit or gennies, a protein, grains, and dairy.
