Food
Mondays 8am-12pm
On Monday mornings we distribute bags of groceries. Currently we are pre-bagging the following items:
  • White rice, pasta, lentils
  • Mixed vegetables, usually potatoes, onions, carrots
  • Fruit, usually bananas & apples
  • Assorted canned and non-perishable items
  • Bread (bagels, rolls, or baguettes)

We also distribute hot lunches available 12pm-1pm thanks to Frontline Foods Queens. ​
  • We will have meals for all of the remaining Mondays in August. Check back here for our September schedule. 
  • Meals usually contain halal chicken
How It Works:
  • There is no need to sign up, show your ID, or give your name. To get food, all you have to do is come on Monday.
  • ​Unfortunately we are no longer distributing milk or eggs due to increased costs of those items.
  • We are not currently offering open shopping inside the pantry. If there is something specific you would like that is not in your pre-made bags, please let us know and we will do our best to get it for you. 
  • If you have any comments or suggestions about the food or the pantry in general, please let us know on Mondays, or drop a comment in the box by the front door.
