Our Offices and Food Pantry Will Be Closed Monday, May 27, 2024 for Memorial Day.
Food Pantry
The food pantry is open Tuesday through Friday, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm, and Thursday, 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm, while food supplies last. Numbers/buzzers are handed out at 30 minutes before opening and service will be offered on a first-come first-served basis. Growing Home reserves the right to close the food pantry before the closing time when food supply is low. We will offer information for other food pantries to participants that come after we have closed.
No Requirements or Appointment Needed. Come to get food and resources.
Growing Home offers a choice model where individuals are able to come in person and select for their family based on their family size. Households are able to visit twice a month.
Items you may find in our food pantry:
- Fresh fruit and Vegetables
- Pantry Essentials
We will also provide as supplies last:
- Bread and Pastries
- Perishable and Pre-Prepared Food
Health and Safety Information
As our indoor services are still impacted by the ongoing pandemic, we offer all individuals over the age of two a face mask, hand sanitizer or gloves and we will maintain a limit on how many individuals are allowed in our indoor spaces, to support social distancing.
