Pantry Pickup Day – October 2025
Food for the community, powered by the community.
Join us for Pantry Pickup Day — part of the Muscatine Mobile Food Pantry! In September we served over 500 households, and this month we’re making things even smoother and safer for everyone.
What’s New This Month:
- Registration starts at the Palms Theatre parking lot: Thanks to our new partnership with the Palms Theater, in order to keep people safe and keep moving quickly, we will have you go to the Palms Theatre first to register and sign-in. As space becomes available at Muscatine Church of Christ, volunteers will send you over. Our goal is to prevent the backup on to Mulberry Av.
-
Reserve Your Box Online: Guarantee your food box ahead of time and choose a 30-minute pickup slot between 1:30 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.
-
Evening Pickup Available: Perfect for working families and single parents who can’t make it during the day.
-
Faster, Safer Experience: Pre-registered guests will use a separate line for quicker service, helping us keep Mulberry Avenue clear and safe.
Still Available:
-
First-Come, First-Served Boxes: Starting at 1:30 p.m., for those unable to register online.
-
Waiting List: If boxes run out, you can sign up to be notified if an unclaimed box becomes available.
Want to make a difference? We also need volunteers to direct traffic, greet guests, load boxes, and keep everything running smoothly. Whether you’re receiving food or lending a hand, there’s a place for you here.
If you’d like to volunteer, please RSVP below — we can’t wait to serve alongside you!
