We've been getting food from AFM since March. I can't say enough good things about them!

The first time we ordered, I half-expected that the food would be out-of-date, the cans would be dented, etc. But every single thing has been fresh and in tip-top condition. Sometimes the brand names are ones we haven't heard of, but don't let that scare you. I can honestly say that everything has been delicious. I And you get so much food!

As far as picking up the food, my husband takes a box or our laundry basket with him. The local pick-up location is just a mile or so down the road, and he's back in 10-15 minutes. He says they're crowded with people, but they're so efficient that you're in and out VERY fast. There was one time he had to wait a few minutes, but they were short-handed that day.

They've been a HUGE help, especially lately, with my husband's work hours being cut. Both freezers are jam-packed with food, and it's better stuff than we would be able to afford at the grocery store. In fact, about all we buy at the store now is side dishes to go with the AFM food.

Sometimes I order multiples of the specials if it's something we really like. Their chicken is especially yummy!

Don't be afraid to give them a try!

P.S. If you're not religious, don't worry. There's no sermon or anything like that. You just pick up your food, and you're out the door. You do get a religious booklet, which you can read if you want. The back of the booklet has the next month's menu on it (it's on their website, too).

THANK YOU Nowdowninit. You have done a very fine job to help others. Now those who are helped, when WE recover, let us help them. Volunteer or aid. 'Hub

P.S. Thanks Mrs. for the correction, HHMMMMMMMMM

I used this program before

My MIL got us into this when we lived in TN and had no jobs. The way it was explained to me was that they buy in bulk as 'Hub said, and use a lot of the larger bulk items in churches for meals, and then sell the remaining bulk items to the public at a cut rate. We used them for about 3 months when we moved there --until we got on our feet buying more regular groceries, then after that supplemented by splitting an order with my MIL for a couple months. You get a lot of food. The meat/ veggies are mostly commercial-type in large bags, etc. then some regularly packaged food (mac & cheese, toaster strudels, frozen rolls etc). We were given a "menu" of choices for that month, you pay ahead and go pick up the food in a line at the church with your basket (you take laundry baskets to put your food in).

I actually did go a few times and helped carry baskets to the car for people that needed assistance and everyone is so thankful for the food. It's a great program and a win win for the organization and the public.

I think Flamingo, or Cali brought this up. I advise all who need a break (like don't we all?) to investigate this organization. I think it wonderful. 'Hub

The OP that brought this to our attention is NowImDownInIt.

I will be going and making our payment tomorrow.

Funny, I just placed my order today. I ordered myself the regular package and my Grandpa 4 packages. He lives alone and doesn't cook. He will love this!

I have a friend on unemployment who didn't qualify for food stamps, she's the one who told me about this program. I'm passing the information on to as many as I can!

[AngelinaCatHub]

I glad to hear that you and Mrs Cat are utilizing this program. I checked into it myself and found that the distribution site is very close. It's always good to know of programs like this for people in need (or ourselves at times!).

Thank you to the OP!

LIz' as I said, they WANT you to use this service as they are out of Georgia and have many sites. It looks like a big service, and they are getting cut rate for quantity. They only distribute once a month. I shall report our product but this month it is the 27th. You must pay ahead. 'Hub

Mrs. and I have signed up for their once a month distribution. I must have sounded a bit humbled or embarrassed to ask for this help. The kind person said we have no economic constraint as we actually purchase this food in bulk and therefore need all the purchasers possible. He said it did not matter the need or the lack of need. What they do need is many purchasers so that those who can afford it make the purchase in bulk economical for those who really need it. He said it is a pay as you go. However, some Church members will pay for a person who cannot so there are some anonymous members to help those who really don't have the money.
