Low Cost Food in Your Neighborhood
Looking for ways to decrease your grocery bill? Check out Angel Food Ministries, a non-profit, non-denominational organization dedicated to providing food relief and contributing to benevolent outreaches in communities throughout the United States.
Each month, a menu is released with the contents of the basic box. Each box, or "unit", is enough to feed a family of four for one week, or a single senior citizen for almost a month. A basic unit costs $30 and contains $40-$70 worth of name-brand grocery items. Specialty boxes, including steaks and fresh produce, are also available for an additional cost.
Angel Food Ministries does accept Food Stamps, but there are no qualifications, minimums, income restrictions, or applications to participate. Just contact your local host site for more information and to order.
