We are so thankful for a community that continues to show up, especially after the past few weeks 💚

Empty Bowls has officially been rescheduled to Tuesday, March 17th from 11am–1pm at the Oxford Conference Center.

For $25, you’ll share a lunch and directly support families who rely on the Pantry. With everything our community has faced lately, your support means more than ever.

We are looking forward to gathering together and making this our biggest Empty Bowls yet 🍀

If you can’t attend, you can still give and make an impact. Every bit helps.

The Oxford Food Pantry is back open to serve.

The Pantry has been closed the last two weeks due to the local weather crisis. Our totally volunteer force has been busy caring for their family and neighbors. Our Community is truly blessed with so many caring citizens, Churches, civic groups, and local government.

The Oxford Food Pantry will reopen on Wednesday, February 11 for any Lafayette County resident who is eligible for Federal assistance (SNAP eligible) and in need of food.

The Food Pantry is open every Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00am to 11:00am.
