Driver. Arrived noon before the day before 10:00 a.m. appointment. Unloaded 12:45 after getting a call from them. Might differ by product, had frozen fish. North entrance, plenty of room to back up to dock on southeast corner, might be tight in lot if a lot of trucks, so stay as close to the outside as possible and it’s a really easy back. Leave on West /South entrance. 10/5 bathroom. Smelled fabulous and very clean. Unloading was completed in the time it took me to get my business done, so ~10 min. Street parking, not sure if overnight is allowed as there are no parking 10p-6a signs but I’m testing that out. Streets are a bit packed with cars. Friendly people. Beautiful views if you’re coming from the north I-5 to US 101.

Wonderful community organization. Took a tour and learned about how many people they serve. They have a great staff and are very in tune with the needs of the community. I definitely recommend anyone who can get involved with supporting monetarily and/or volunteering. Call to get signed up! They need support and volunteers.

This program has selflessly helped feed our homeless population for years at Genesis Sober Living, Inc. also people from custody that have absolutely no food when they arrive. This organization absolutely does what they say!

Five. Stars for the receptionist.
3 to 4 stars to one of the blonde ladies with blue eyes who I spoke to on my last visit. I am aware that they usually don’t give out food bags at this location but out of emergency because I didn’t have anymore money and I’m currently unemployed. I went to this location to ask for food and I thought the attitude of this lady was very rude given the fact that on their wall they have written “because no one should go hungry”.
This woman gave a passive aggressive remark, saying they had limited resources, and she would go to the back with the receptionist to get me a bag. I really didn’t say anything other than thank you but for somebody who is struggling right now, that comment doesn’t really make you feel very well about going to a social work resource organization to ask for help when you’re dealing with people like this. If this woman does not like her job, then she should probably quit because there’s plenty of people who are currently unemployed who would love to have a job. Aside from these interactions, I’ve had to deal with. I could say I am very grateful for this organization, because I actually wrote a paper in college about food share, When I was a student. So seeing what I wrote come into existence to help society temporarily, while they look for employment is very amazing. I also appreciate this resource because it really alleviates some of the pains and struggles people face in society just to get food, and I truly feel that this curves the data when it comes to human trafficking because a lot of people end up in human trafficking, just because they don’t have jobs, or have the support system to get their basic needs met.

Wonderful facility. Clean, well organized. Staffed by happy cheerful people who seem to love what they do. A incredibly important service done very, very well. If you can support them, do. I heard one woman say because of Food Share and the vast network of food pantries and partners, many people have avoided homelessness. In otherwords, they didn't have to choose eating over paying rent or mortgage because they were able to receive food at no cost, they could pay for their housing. Think about it, huge impact.

me and my boyfriend went to the food bank and they're the nicest people I told him how many people we had in our house and they didn't give us a hard question what we said and they gave us a grip of food no ID no documentation required is like a one-time thing but it's it's awesome. You really should go check this place out. They take volunteers donations also. They are awesome. They also provide a list of other resources

Covid has really put some major restrictions on food share but those people are doing all they can to comply and feed more people than ever. Great staff. Junior is always really helpful. Hard worker
