  • Each family can use the food pantry as much as once per week. Guests can shop the pantry on a first-come, first-served basis. All who come during pantry hours will be served.
  • First-time registrants will be asked for: full name, identification, proof of address, and the name and birth date of each household member.
  • The CMC does not provide delivery service. You may send someone in your place to pick up food for you, provided that you are registered to use the pantry.
  • Personal hygiene items are also available on Tuesdays through the personal essentials pantry.
  • During the growing season, the CMC offers an abundant supply of fresh produce from the food pantry garden.
  • The CMC Pantry offers Halal meat (in addition to conventional meat).
