Feed’em Soup holds free community meals open to anyone regardless of need twice per month. They strive to provide not only a warm room with good food for our guests but a friendly, social environment. In Addition to a nutritious, delicious home cooked meal, they occasionally also provide live music from High School choir groups to Country and Pop music performers appropriate for all ages.

Everyone is welcome to attend the meals completely free of charge. There is a small donation basket placed at each table with a sign that reads “Small donations to cover the cost of food are welcomed but never required.” They encourage potential volunteers and members of the community to attend our meals to get to know us better as well as those in need. Those able to cover the cost of food are welcomed to do so, however NO ONE is EVER asked to pay for any of the services. Visit their website for more information.
