A reminder today from Cass County Wellness Coordinator Brigham Hoegh, that on Wednesday December 2nd, the Cass County Local Food Policy Council will host a mobile food pantry through the Food Bank for the Heartland at the Cass County Community Center, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM, or as supplies last. Hoegh says they have ordered double the amount of food to be handed out at the mobile pantries in the past, given the increased food needs related to COVID-19.

Anyone in need is welcome to visit the mobile pantry, and no documentation is needed. People from surrounding towns and communities are welcome. Traffic will be directed by volunteers. Visitors are asked stay in their vehicles with the trunk open. The mobile pantry is available free of charge.
