the food

Extra Table raises funds throughout the year to enable us to buy the freshest food available at the lowest price for the greatest number of people. Extensive research and planning with food pantry and soup kitchen partners provides immediate and anticipated future needs to ensure food is not wasted or shortages of food do not occur.
Our pantry food list includes:

Lean proteins i.e. chicken, tuna, peanut butter, dried beans

Fruit with no sugar added or in 100% juice

Low sodium vegetables, soup and pasta sauce

Whole grains i.e. oats, grits, rice, pasta, granola bars
Not only is our food healthy, but every item is shelf-stable and well within the expiration dates. We fight hunger and obesity simultaneously by providing individuals that do not have a choice where their next meal is to come from with good food that offers HOPE for a better tomorrow. At Extra Table, we believe food is a basic human right that no one should do without.
Our food meets daily nutritional requirements and supports the dietary needs of those struggling with obesity, heart disease, and diabetes. We take our food purchasing very seriously, and you simply won’t find junk in our bundles.
