When can I pick up food?

Food Bank Hours

Please note that we have NEW MARKET HOURS. Please see details below.

If you aren't able to shop during open market hours on a shopping week, you can pick up a produce bag and dry goods box on those Fridays from 12-4. We also have emergency produce bags and dry goods boxes available Monday-Friday on non-shopping weeks from 12-4 as needed.

* Starting Thursday, September 11, we’ll be shifting to an Express Shopping Experience on the Thursdays of shopping weeks. Our goal is to serve more neighbors, reduce wait times, and improve overall experience for those who need or prefer quick pick-up.

What to expect on Express Shopping Thursdays:

Sign up on the waitlist at the front door (if needed). Random numbers will still be assigned.
Wait to be called inside—you’ll get a notification as usual.
Check in and fill out a grocery menu with a volunteer.
Wait outside while we pack your groceries—we’ll bring them out and call your name when they’re ready!

You’ll still receive fresh food like produce, milk, eggs, and meat—plus the toiletries we’ve been offering, like diapers, wipes, feminine hygiene, and incontinence products. Just like normal market shopping, all of these items will depend on availability.
