Healthy Food Pantry

Households may visit our shopping-style food pantry twice a month. We offer fresh produce, meat and dairy, bread, spices, grab-and-go meals, and staple ingredients. Essential items like soap, toilet paper, toothpaste, clothing, and more are available upon request.

Our staff is available to assist you while you are at William Temple House. Please let us know how we can help. Physical access to the pantry requires navigating stairs. Alternative access options include placing a food order at the front desk to be filled by our team and assistance carrying groceries. For stair-free access to the lobby, please use the side door of the building located off the parking lot.

We are an Oregon Food Bank partner agency, an equal opportunity provider, and an LGBTQ Affirming Agency. For our full nondiscrimination statement, please click here.
