The Round Valley Food Pantry opened last month in Covelo. On the first distribution day, over 30 households in need received free food, which benefited over 100 people! That amounts to nearly 10% of the population of Covelo served on the very first day. Food is available to any community member in need.
The food pantry is administered for Food For All Mendocino. Many organizations have contributed to the food pantry. Supporters include : The Round Valley Library Commons, Round Valley Tribal TANF, First 5 Mendocino, Willits Community Services, and local Round Valley Farmers.
The food pantry is open once a month in the Community Room at the Library Commons. Food is distributed from 2-4 pm on the following Thursdays: February 17th, March 17th, April 14th, May 19th, June 16th, and July 14th. People may also apply for food stamps during this time.
