Weekly Food Pantry
Overview
Our weekly food pantry is open to low-income Novato residents every Tuesday afternoon between 1-3pm. Healthy foods are provided to clients, including produce, dairy, canned and dried foods, and a protein.
Please note: our food pantry is currently at capacity, and all new registrations will be placed on a waiting list.
Please come in and sign up in advance during our client service hours by filling out a short Food Pantry registration form and meeting with one of our case managers to learn about all the services available at NMCS that might help you. You will spend 15-30 minutes with a case manager during your first visit.
Everyone who is eligible is given a regular time slot on Tuesdays to come to pick up their food, which prevents people from waiting in long lines. You may be referred to a Food Pantry that is closer to your home.
