Food insecurity has been at an all time high in Tillamook County …
SNAP is still uncertain. Holidays are still coming. Federal Employees are still without a paycheck.
All of the local pantries have had record breaking numbers in the past week.
Want to donate shelf stable foods for the local pantries?
There are a number of North County businesses that have bins set up.
All donations will be divided between North County Food Bank, Nehalem Bay Community Services and the Little Free Pantries
* Wheeler City Hall
* Little Free Pantries found in Nehalem North Coast Pinball and across from Manzanita Lumber Co.
There are $$ donation jars at Manzanita Grocery & Deli by the cash register…round that purchase up for your neighbors!
You can always bring your donations to the pantries/foodbank:
*North Coast Food Bank on Tuesday 10:00 – noon (before we open for customers)
*Nehalem Bay Community Services during open hours on Monday/Friday/Saturday, 10 – 2 and Wednesday, 1-5
*Little Free Pantries (accessible 24/7)
