Neighborhood House Food Shelf is located in the Paul & Sheila Wellstone Center.
At Neighborhood House our Food Support Program includes two free food markets, fresh produce distribution events, and other food support related services and assistance. We work hard to provide healthy, culturally appropriate and nutritious foods for our community and believe that no one should ever go hungry.

Location & Open Times

This allows participants to sign-up for a timeslot once per month to shop themselves and/or with a volunteer or food intake worker. In-person shopping hours are 9-11:30AM & 1PM-3:30PM, Monday – Friday. Appointments are on a first-come, first-serve basis. To make an appointment, please call 651-7893602 between the hours of 9AM-4PM, Monday – Friday.

ProducePedia
ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
