The River Food Pantry's Munch Truck will be stopping outside Goodman South.   About River Food Pantry & Munch Truck Launched in 2016, Munch is our mobile meals program that delivers free healthy meals to children and adults in over a dozen low-income neighborhoods throughout Madison. Each meal contains a sandwich or main menu item, a fruit or vegetable, a grain, a treat, and a drink. Everyone is welcome to take home a free meal. No registration or ID is required. Neighborhoods served by Munch have large populations of children eligible for free school lunch. To bridge the gap that exists when school lunch is not available, Munch operates up to 6 days per week, Monday–Saturday, any time school cafeterias are closed (including breaks and periods of remote learning). For any questions or comments, please contact the Munch staff at [email protected] or (608) 661-1223. View this event at https://www.madisonpubliclibrary.org/spaces/events/munch-mobile-meals-71721
