Service Updates
Our food pantry hours are Monday, Wednesday, Friday mornings at 9 AM until noon. We have limited parking so we asked that you call ahead at 828-682-7251 and reserve a time to come in so that we can get you in and out quickly and efficiently.
There are three ways to get food. We offer a pre-pack box brought to your car, neighbor choice where you come in and shop off the shelves, or you can go to OrderAhead.org and select foods and they will be ready for you to pick up at your appointed time. You can come in and get food every two weeks or monthly. If you are unable to come during these hours, you can send a family member or neighbor to pick up for you. Just let us know when you call.
We offer financial assistance for heating, utility bills, and other necessities. Please call and talk to a client services person to apply over the phone. applications are also available on our front porch in the bins to the left of the door. Drop completed forms in the lock box.
