They buy fresh fruits, vegetables, and frozen meat in bulk which saves up to 40% off grocery store prices. Volunteers at the Fare For All warehouse pre-pack the produce and meat into food packages that range in price from $10 – $25. There is no need to register in advance or fill out any paperwork. Fare For All is open to everyone – because food is purchased in bulk, the more people who participate the better. Fare For All visits Pax Christi once a month, on a Tuesday afternoon from 3:30–5:30pm.
