GROCERIES: Pantry Appointments
Pantry appointments allow you to shop for your own food and personal care items alongside a volunteer. You may sign up for one pantry appointment per month, and expect to leave with 6+ bags of food, including produce, dairy and meat. In order to prioritize the safety of you and our volunteers, we have some guidelines for you to follow while shopping:
Appointments will be at a scheduled time and spaced out.
No walk ups for pantry shopping. You must have an appointment.
You can make an appointment for next month the day after you attend your last appointment.
If you’re shopping with minor children, they must be kept with you at all times.
To make your grocery appointment, call (734) 484-2989 weekdays, 9 AM – 4 PM. Pantry Appointments are at 518 Harriet Street, Ypsilanti.
Pantry volunteers can no longer make appointments; appointments must be made by calling the number above.
