Providing both short-term assistance and ongoing support, the Kindness Community Market helps to ensure healthy food access for all. Visit us and find a compassionate, judgment-free shopping environment where kindness and community lead the way.

What to expect when you visit
When you arrive, one of our friendly staff members will greet you and ask for your name. If it's your first time shopping with us, we'll ask you to complete a TEFAP form and a Guest Agreement Form. We'll also note the number of people in your household and their relation to you to help us serve everyone efficiently.
Once this quick paperwork is done, a helpful volunteer will escort you through the market. They'll point out any special items available that day and assist you in selecting food items that meet your household's size and needs.
​
The Marketplace is accessible for individuals who use mobility aids. If you have specific questions please call Jayne at 338-4845, option 4.
The Kindness Community Market provides a three-day food supplement for your household, following Federal guidelines. You're welcome to shop with us once a week to help supplement your household's food needs. We look forward to seeing you at the Market!
