Bigfork Food Bank is well-stocked and ready to serve
Customers of the Bigfork Food Bank have no need to panic since the facility has “ample food,” director Ann Tucker told the Eagle last Friday. However, the food bank will only be open one day in the month of April in an effort to minimize the risk of exposing volunteers to COVID-19, who are essential to food bank operations. Customers will still be able to pick up the same amount of food for the month, but will have to stop by between 1-6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 7. The food bank was previously open every Tuesday.
