MoGro Weekly Produce Pack
ORGANIZATION: MoGro, Mobile Grocery
Please visit the new page to apply.
MoGro Mobile Grocery is a nonprofit mobile grocery based in Albuquerque. Our main goal is to make nourishing food accessible to more families in central New Mexico by removing barriers of distance and cost that can inhibit access to healthy eating. We also work to buy as much of the food we distribute from small local farmers to make sure that as much of the funding spent on these programs is returned to the communities we serve in multiple ways.
We help to make healthy food more accessible by working with partners like Tribal communities, Presbyterian Community Health, Three Sisters Kitchen, CNM, and UNM Truman Health Center to provide their clients and community members with bags of fresh, healthy, and local food. With large volumes of produce going so many different directions, we first bring it all to Roadrunner Food Bank, where we rent space to pack our bags and store our food, to sort, pack and redistribute.
This is where YOU come in! We need help packing our produce and grocery bags for our partner organizations. We pack every Tuesday from 2:30 - 6:30pm at Roadrunner Food Bank.
Send us an email if you're interested in having a hands-on impact helping make healthy, nourishing food more accessible! Once we answer any questions you might have, we will send you the link to our SignUp page where you can sign up for a future Tuesday night pack. We look forward to hearing from you!
