Commodities to be distributed

Pick-up dates for the November distribution of the commodity food program are Nov. 1 and Nov. 2.

Thursday, Nov. 1, certified eligible families in Moran should pick up their monthly commodity food at the Moran City Hall between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 noon.

Albany families who have been certified eligible for the November food distribution program can pick up their commodity food Friday, Nov. 2, at the rear door of the JP office (the former county jail) from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. 

“We will also have a ‘Thanksgiving Bag’ for folks who picked up their commodities last month,” said Justice of the Peace James Breeden. “Certified eligible families that did not pick up their food last month will still get a regular commodity bag this month, but will not get the additional Thanksgiving Bag.”

Recipients who are unable to pick up their food can send a signed and dated note with someone to pick up their commodities for them, rather than letting the items go unclaimed.
