Fare For All
Fare
For All is open to anyone who wants to save money on their groceries.
Participants (seniors, working families,
individuals who are both employed and unemployed, or individuals on
fixed incomes) have the opportunity to save 40-50% off their monthly
food budgets and access fresh fruits and veggies, frozen meats of all
kinds, and a variety of non-perishable staple items.
Traditional Fare For All
One
Saturday per month, Fare For All Food packs are distributed to
participants in outlying sites around Minnesota. Participants
pre-register for food packages, and then they are delivered to the Fare
For All location by the volunteers. If you are in the outlying Twin
Cities or greater Minnesota, find a site near you to begin saving today.
Fare for All Express!
This
model is like a traveling grocery store. Food packs are sold on a
variety of days and times at sites around the Twin Cities metro area,
including monthly Emergency Foodshelf Network warehouse locations. This
model of Fare For All allows participants to pay and take the food home
on the same day. Distribution sites
are located in many communities across the metro area. If you don’t
see one in your area, feel free to call the Fare For All Express! office at 763-450-3880 to find one closest to you.
