About Our Pop Up Pantries
When affording groceries becomes tough, the Weymouth Food Pantry is here to help. Everyone struggling to afford groceries qualifies.
Before you come: NEW! Now you can fill out our client intake form online, in the privacy of your home prior to your visit. Fill out your online form here. The option to fill out a physical form in person the day of your visit is still available if you prefer it.
Come as often as you need, but no more than once per calendar week (Monday through Sunday). Please bring proof of Weymouth residence such as a piece of mail (you can use your ID if that indicates you live in Weymouth), and a few reusable grocery bags.
When you first come in, you'll be given a number and offered a snack and some coffee as you wait your turn. If you filled out our client intake form online, a volunteer will confirm your information. If you need to fill out the form in person, a volunteer will sit down with you on your first visit to take down some basic information about you and what brought you to the Food Pantry*.
A volunteer will call a group of people at a time to come forward to shop. At that time, you'll be able to shop for your own food. If you'd like some eggs, for example, you would approach a table with a volunteer who has eggs. That volunteer might ask you how many people are in your family and hand you more or less based on that number. Volunteers are also there to help if you're looking for something specific.
Once you've chosen your groceries, volunteers will weigh your bags** and can help you out to your car or to a pre-paid cab if you need a lift home. You can trust that all volunteers will hold the fact that you came to the Food Pantry in confidence as this is a strict requirement of their volunteer service.
