Here are the dates for the upcoming stops by the DeKalb County Community Gardens’ Grow Mobile, a mobile food pantry offering fresh produce, kitchen and pantry items and other necessities free and available to all who come, no requirements.

All food packages are pre-packed and will be distributed drive-thru style. DCCG is working hard to ensure well-being of residents, staff and volunteers and ask that you practice good hand hygiene and stay home if you are sick.
