Open Cupboard

A nonprofit organization


Help us refresh our Today's Harvest Oakdale market 

to distribute more fresh and healthy food!

We need your help to transform our space with a new walk-in cooler and more!


Since 1983, Open Cupboard has been here for our community. 

Thanks to Woodbury Rotary Club, gifts during GiveMN are matched up to $17,000

to help us reach the next chapter at our Oakdale facility.



 “Here,  I don't have to limit [my kids] as much as far as what they pick. Especially fruits and vegetables. They get a little more freedom of choice. They like that. They love coming here." 

-Gina, Today's Harvest shopper and mother of two



We're raising $50,000 to transform Today's Harvest Oakdale with a new walk-in cooler—creating a true retail shopping experience where families like Gina's can browse fresh, healthy food with ease. 
This isn't just about refrigeration - it's about impact.


The Woodbury Rotary Club is providing $17,000 in matching funds,

meaning your gift can have an even greater impact!


Why This Matters:

Right now, volunteers must pause shopping to restock fridges from the front—disrupting the experience and limiting what we can offer. The new cooler changes everything: volunteers stock from the back, shoppers browse uninterrupted from the front, and we can offer more fresh food to more families.

Since opening in 2022, Today's Harvest Oakdale has supported over 1,860,000 individual visits to our market. Our community needs us, and we need this capacity upgrade to keep pace.


The Impact:


This project means more fresh produce, dairy, and protein available for families who count on us. It means shopping that feels more welcoming and easy.  It means safer, more efficient operations for our volunteers. Most importantly, it means we can serve more families facing food insecurity with the dignity they deserve.



Your gift helps us meet this moment. 
Together, we're building capacity to nourish our neighbors for years to come.
