The Bea Taylor Market is a choice food pantry offering clients free food according to family composition, nutritional needs, cooking availability, and tastes. Client choices are augmented by fresh produce, pre-selected meals, and personal hygiene products. Homeless clients receive special boxes with foods that can be consumed without heating.
Volunteer Task: Volunteers will stock shelves, assist customers during their shopping experience, staff the check-in and checkout counters, assist customers to their vehicle with their groceries and load into the vehicle, and perform simple maintenance activities to keep the market clean and customer friendly.
Parking: Park in any of our free spaces on-site. When you arrive, enter through the main entrance of the building (the doors under the WELCOME sign).
