Little Kitchen Food Shelf

Little Kitchen Food Shelf, located in NE Minneapolis, operates as an emergency food shelf with a unique commitment to inclusivity and community support. Unlike traditional food shelves, we proudly serve all individuals regardless of income or zip code, ensuring that no one in our community goes hungry.

Our approach stands out for several reasons. We prioritize stocking our shelves with fresh produce grown on-site at Grace Gardens and through partnerships with Twin Cities Food Justice and local gardeners. This allows us to offer a diverse range of culturally specific items, meeting the varied needs of our diverse client base.

We also provide pet food and supplies, acknowledging the integral role pets play in our clients' households. This holistic approach to food security underscores our commitment to serving the whole community.

Despite facing challenges such as increasing client registrations and rising food costs, we remain dedicated to keeping our shelves stocked and expanding our garden to provide even more fresh produce. Donations are crucial to sustaining our operations and supporting our growth efforts.

Beyond our physical location, Little Kitchen Food Shelf collaborates with numerous organizations and businesses to extend food distributions to groups in need throughout our community. This collaborative effort strengthens our impact and furthers our mission of enhancing food access for all.

By supporting Little Kitchen Food Shelf, donors contribute directly to our efforts to alleviate food insecurity and foster a supportive, inclusive community where everyone can access nutritious food and essential supplies without barriers.
