Pantry Programs and Events
Free Food Markets
Free Food Markets are community events that center fresh produce provided by the Oregon Food Bank (OFB). We receive large orders of produce from OFB and add non-perishable items. Free Food Markets are offered at each of the 4 PCC campuses and scheduled around our campus delivery schedule from the OFB. These events are open to all and there are no limits. No ID is needed to attend, we only ask how many people are in the household. We ask that participants bring their own bag or box to transport the food.
