FOOD PANTRY TONIGHT! MONDAY JUNE 3 5:30 - 6:30

We pick up from Costco, Whole Foods, Ideal Market, and Community Food Share (CFS) each week for our Pantry.

So please come on down and help us rescue this delightful bounty.
Here's some of what we have...

BAKED GOODS: Lots of breads, bagels, buns, muffins, cakes, pies, cookies, and pastries! CONSIDER taking a cake to someone tonight!
PREPARED FOOD: An entire Google fridge (so called because Google donated the huge double door fridge)! Packed with fresh prepared meals, both family size and individual portions, sushi, SO many salads, rotisserie chickens, shrimp, salmon, soup, pupusas, olives, cheeses, sandwiches, and more!

SPECIAL THANKS going out to Chef Justin from the Merc who has been taking our compost to a pig farm and to Purnima and Randy for taking some of our leftovers to the Wildlife Sanctuary in Eastern Colorado. Our goal at the pantry is to keep as much food out of the Landfill as we can and this is helping enormously!
On another note, did anyone notice that the Big Park has been mowed? It looks terrific! I believe I heard that Russell was responsible for this lovely gesture to the town. Thank you so much!
And a final thank you to all of you for your generous and very consistent donations, they really help so much!
