Founded In 1983

The pantry began as a distribution outlet for government surplus goods and grew over time. It started in church hallways and expanded into a commercial building across the parking lot to accommodate growing demand. In 2018, major facility upgrades (new roof, shelving, refrigeration) were added along with a garden behind the church.
