People take what they need, Less waste
Neighbors Together of Union County hosts a weekly Buffet Style Fresh Alliance Food Bank distribution where people take what they need so there is less food wasted.
We also have a monthly food bank box distribution and Emergency Firewood available for those that need wood for heating and cooking.
Fresh Alliance distributes every Tuesday and the La Grande Food Bank now distributes on the last Tuesday of the month.
Fresh Alliance hand out times can vary. Basically we can’t hand out food until it arrives from local vendors.

Here’s how our food bank works:
We buy our food from the State of Oregon, canned goods, staples, etc. and gather donated food from several sources. Sometimes it’s a trucker that is running heavy and needs to off-load a ton of potatoes. Off we go to help them off-load and then we store and distribute as we can. Very little food is wasted! And, yes, we appreciate the crazy stuff our volunteers do to serve our community!
