WALTHAM FOOD PANTRY

CHANGES TO OUR FOOD PANTRY – FALL 2023
Healthy Waltham is excited to announce that we will move to 123 Felton St. in 2024! While we plan the new space, our pantry will continue at the Fitch School, 5 Cherry St. We will temporarily scale back the food we are offering to shelf-stable boxes at this time. We look forward to resuming our full-service pantry in the future and appreciate your understanding. 

NEW TIME: 1:30 pm – 5pm
No appointment? We will serve guests without appointments from 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm.

LOCATION: 5 Cherry Street, Fitch School, Waltham

 
WHERE TO PARK: STREET PARKING ONLY.
NO parking in private lots on Cherry and Ash Streets – you will be towed. Parking is on-street and in municipal (public) lots only.
Pantry is walk up only.

TO RECEIVE FOOD:
Please sign up for an appointment through the Your Market website link here: https://www.your-market.org/

We will be offering boxes of shelf-stable food. Thank you for your patience as we prepare for our move to a new space.

Neighborhood Satellite Pantries

In an effort to reach Waltham’s most vulnerable populations, Healthy Waltham holds “Pop Up” pantries approximately once per month. These are held in Waltham’s neediest neighborhoods and provide groceries and other essential items to approximately 150 families per pantry. They are promoted through social media and through distribution of flyers for residents of that particular neighborhood. As with our other pantries, registration is not required and items are distributed on a first come, first served basis.

Food Deliveries

Healthy Waltham provides food to local community organizations that make deliveries to approximately 200 families and individuals several times per month. Our delivery partners include African Cultural Services, Waltham Mutual Aid, Ministry of Truth Mobile Pantry, and Brandeis University.
