Becker County Food Pantry Inc

Here at the Becker County Food Pantry we are passionate about rescuing food from local retailers. Crushed boxes of cereal, good eggs from a carton with a cracked egg, produce and dairy products that have reached the best-by date, jars with labels printed upside down - these are all examples of foods that may otherwise be thrown, but because of our incredibly generous local partners - including Central Market Detroit Lakes, Walmart, Aldi, and KFC, we are able to receive and sort these foods to give out to those in need! 3 times a week, our dedicated volunteer drivers and our trusty truck make the rounds to pick up donations. Our truck is also used to make trips to regional food manufacturers to pick up many thousands of pounds of excess foods and products that are perfectly good to eat but not sellable at a retail location. It's a win for food insecurity, a win for retailers, and a win for our environment!  If you love food rescue, join us in our efforts!
