Mobile Produce Pantry
The Mobile Produce Pantry is a refrigerated truck full of fresh fruits and vegetables that we drive to specific locations across Humboldt County on a monthly schedule. We travel all over the county to set up a free farm stand-style produce distribution. The fresh fruits and vegetables available from the Mobile Produce Pantry come from a variety of sources, including purchases from local farms. Our staff provide CalFresh information and application assistance on site to help participants afford to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables at local stores and farmers' markets over the rest of the month.
Monthly Schedule
Please note that 4 of these sites have a winter schedule: November through April, we are in Willow Creek, Hoopa, Weitchpec, and Orleans from 12-2pm, to keep our staff and truck safe from early morning icy roads on the mountain passes. Beginning in May, these sites go back to the main season schedule that starts earlier in the day.
