Food Drive starts now at 1881!

With federal SNAP benefits temporarily reduced, many families in our community are feeling the squeeze this month — so we’re stepping up to help.

Now through Thanksgiving, when you donate 3 or more non-perishable food items Pet food too!), we’ll give you a 10% off coupon for your next visit (valid 30 days from drop-off).

We’re proud to partner with Neighborhood House, St. Paul’s local community support hub, to make sure every item goes directly to families who need it most.

Together, we can make sure everyone has a full plate as we enter the holiday season.
