We have a wide assortment of food available. Bags with staple items are pre-filled, but we will gladly add any special requests if they are available. When you visit, there is always a simple lunch. On the last Wednesday of every month, we serve a pretty darned good hot meal with salad and a huge table filled with pies and desserts. We call it a community lunch. All are welcomed.

Children will create a no-bake treat that is easy to recreate at home. Perfect for breakfast, lunchboxes, or an afterschool snack. (Parents may drop off or participate for free)
