Every Monday, our food rescue volunteers go out and gather food that helps stock our pantry for the week. They carefully sort through everything, removing any damaged items and making sure our neighbors receive fresh, quality food.

We’re so grateful for our volunteers and food rescue partners who help make this possible each week! ❤️

With the summer heat rolling in, we’re adding a little extra smile to this week’s bread bags… POPSICLES!

Thanks to generous donations, families picking up bread this week may find a cool surprise tucked inside their bag. It’s a small way to help make these hot summer days a little sweeter.

Marie’s Garden is coming to life! 🌱

Tiny sprouts are popping up everywhere, and it’s exciting to see all the hard work beginning to pay off. Every seed planted is one step closer to providing fresh, nutritious food for our community.

🍅 Our first tomatoes should be ready in about 4–6 weeks, and many other fruits, vegetables, and fresh produce are growing right alongside them!

We can’t wait to watch this garden flourish and share the harvest with the families we serve. Thank you to everyone who supports our mission and helps make projects like this possible. 💚

Summer means fuller homes, bigger grocery bills, and sometimes harder choices for families and their pets.

At Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry, we help care for both - because pets are family too.
