We serve individuals and families within the McFarland School District who are struggling with hunger, treating all Pantry guests with respect and confidentiality. Our goal is to offer independence while getting needed groceries and household essentials.
Come during Pantry hours to receive food and household items. Additional “special” items will continue to be offered as available.
Please note: We are now open for in person shopping (with restricted numbers). Masks are no longer required.
