FIND FOOD TODAY / Groceries & Pantries
Most soup kitchens and food pantries have changed their operations in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Most - if not all - have switched to providing takeaway meals and/or pre-packaged groceries, and have implemented physical distancing requirements for visitors. Many have also eliminated or relaxed eligibility requirements and food access restrictions. The information available on these pages today reflects these changes. Please check in with your local soup kitchen or food pantry when pandemic restrictions ease to confirm their schedule, eligibility, and procedures.
We will do our best to update these entries as the information changes, but we cannot guarantee that they will always be correct.
We have included contact information for all sites; however, because many are now working from home, it will be harder for you to reach individuals at these sites. Please be patient and plan ahead. Leave a voice message or send an email and they will be in touch when they check messages.

IMPORTANT: Children 18 and younger qualify for free meals through their public school. children in need of food assistance should school meals first, before searching elsewhere. Doing so relieves pressure from other food services, soup kitchens and food pantries.
