CommUnity Crisis Services and Food Bank has announced the opening of its second food bank. The new location will serve Iowa City’s southeast side from Pepperwood Plaza at 1045 Highway 6 East.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CommUnity Crisis Services and Food Bank implemented changes in the way it provides services. In order to maintain social distancing among clients, volunteers, and staff, the non-profit began providing pre-packaged bags and delivery service. The new Pepperwood Plaza location will provide the opportunity for clients to select their own food like they would at a grocery store, rather than having bags of food prepackaged. It also offers less waste.

The new location will open on Monday.

 

Hours of operation:

Monday: 12pm to 4:30pm

Tuesday: 12pm to 7pm

Wednesday: 12pm to 4:30pm

Thursday: 9:30am to 4:30pm

Friday: 12pm to 4:30pm

Saturday: 9:30am to 2pm
