Warmer weather means we want to feel cooler and that is true for our fridge as well. If you've been by recently, you'll notice we've taken off the outer doors, which hold in too much heat in warmer weather.

Take a peek inside, you will see we are stocked with fruit, water and sandwiches. Our sandwich making crew is phenomenal!

If you felt the effects of the wind yesterday, you weren't alone. Our fridge took a big hit. For now, it can only be accessed through the left hand side. We appreciate your patience while we look into getting some repairs made.

Our partnership with Badger Prairie Needs Network is a continual source of excellent foods, and occasional surprises. Today we learned of this new product, sure to be a hit with pickle lovers... and perhaps with those who play pickle ball!
Via , we also receive some wonderful soups and meals from Epic Systems. These delicious entrees are popular and nutritious.

We're all aware that it's extremely cold - dangerously so. There are housing resources available and we hope all who need are making use of those options.

The extreme low temperatures affect what food items we can safely put out. Cans will burst and make a mess in the pantry, not to mention the loss of usable items. However, there are still plenty of things available, and our thoughtful, diligent team is working steadily to keep food accessible. Stay safe, everyone!
