HOW IT WORKS
Shopping for Groceries Should Feel Like Shopping
We are not a "one-box-fits-all" food bank. We are a shop-style pantry where you choose what your family actually needs.
Come In
Walk in every Tuesday between Noon and 4pm at 750 E Mingus Ave, Cottonwood. No appointment needed. Bring your Arizona ID.
Shop Your Way
Browse our warehouse-style pantry and select items that fit your diet, health needs, and preferences. Locally grown, farm-fresh produce available through our AZFB Network partnerships.
Leave With More Than Food
Volunteers know your name. Conversations happen in the aisles. You leave with groceries and genuine community.

No one in Cottonwood should go hungry. You belong here. Everyone does. Every Tuesday, Noon–4pm, your neighbors show up and so do we. Shop freely. Eat well. Be known.
What Our Neighbors Say
"Blessing. Not only the food but the fellowship of those who serve us each week. Thank you. P.S. This food bank is the happiest place in Cottonwood!"
"Without your assistance I would have lost my home. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you."
"I appreciate how you treat us with respect. I don't feel demeaned or demoralized by you. Not only do we get a great choice of food, but we get friends too. God bless you very much."
These people are the nicest. They run a well organized necessary service for this community. They always have bread and produce, which helps supplement my meager grocery budget. In the ever growing inflated economy this is quiet literally a godsend!
