    Info

    • We are a food pantry that distributes fresh fruits and vegetables, household cleaning items, personal hygiene items, and canned/boxed foods. Based on donations from local businesses, we also try to distribute milk and cheese, baked goods, meats, and ready-made meals.

    **We give out food and cleaning items every Sunday from 1 to 3 pm, rain or shine. If pantry guests arrive at 2 pm, the line is shorter and there still is plenty of food. We are open on holidays.

    • For people who are unable to visit the pantry in person due to disability, we deliver groceries to homes during weekends. This depends on how many volunteer drivers we have.

    • We are located behind the building at 4340 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC. We are a block north of the Van Ness Metro station on the Red line on the west side.

    **People can text or call NW Community Food at (202) 743-5770. Our website is: https://nwcommunityfood.net.

  15. Do I need an appointment?

    Every location is different! Some places in Barnaby Woods accept appointments, some require it, and others allow walk-ins. Please review all details on the resource page to understand how you should prepare for your visit.

  16. What kind of food do they have?

    Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself. Soup kitchens offer ready-to-eat items like hot meals or sandwiches. All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  17. Do they have vegetables?

    Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in Barnaby Woods do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  18. Do they have meat?

    Pantries may have different options on different days, so it’s hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  19. Any pantries open today?

    If you’ve signed up for personalized assistance through our text message helpline, please take a look at the links we’ve sent you! If none of the resources we’ve sent are open today, let us know and we can search for additional options. Here’s a list of everything in Barnaby Woods that’s open today: Emory Beacon of Light, First Baptist Church of Silver Spring Food Closet, Emory Beacon of Light – Beacon Basket Food Pantry, Shepherd's Table - Progress Place Building

  20. Where are you located?

  21. Can I get a reminder before my visit?

    Yes! Tap the bell icon on any resource page to set a reminder via text or WhatsApp before it opens, so you don’t forget your visit.

  22. Can I build a weekly food schedule?

    Yes — you can use Lemontree to build a calendar of upcoming pantry visits in Barnaby Woods for the week, so you always know where to go and when. It’s a great way to plan ahead and make sure you have food throughout the week.

  23. How do I get help from a real person?

    You can text our helpline at 90847 or reach us on WhatsApp between 10am–6pm, every day of the week. A real person will help you find food in Barnaby Woods, answer questions, and connect you with the right resources.
