Marshfield Food Pantry

Need Food?

Need groceries? We’re here for Marshfield neighbors.

The Marshfield Food Pantry is a 501(c)(3) all‑volunteer organization that collects, purchases, and distributes groceries to Marshfield residents who are facing food insecurity. We operate a dignified, shop‑style pantry so neighbors can choose the foods their families enjoy—especially fresh produce. Thanks to community donations, we support 300+ families each month.

Eligibility:

You must live in Marshfield.

You may shop once per calendar month.

You’ll leave with a grocery cart full of food for your household.
