The Quemado Food Pantry will be on Friday, Sept. 3 at the Community Center sponsored by the Datil community Presbyterian Church. Two programs run simultaneously; the federally funded Commodities and a Food Fair.
There are no eligibility requirements for the Food Fair and you will receive about 50 pounds of food per household. You must arrive and sign up before 3:30. You will then be called in order, so prepare to wait – it is well worth it. Bring you own containers! Ice chests are recommended for frozen and refrigerated foods.
