Client-choice Shopping

The Shepherd’s Market is a client-choice food pantry serving the hungry and needy in south Baton Rouge. Open Mondays from 3:30-5:30 p.m. and Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8-10 a.m., we serve the FIRST 50 families/individuals that come for food – rain or shine. Clients are only able to shop for groceries once a month.

How does it work?

• Park and come inside through the back side door.
• You will be given a number and offered a hot meal while you wait to update your information. Clients may receive ONE NUMBER for ONE HOUSEHOLD per pantry shift. This will allow us to serve every household in line each pantry day.
• After information is updated, when your number is called, you will go inside the pantry and, with the help of volunteers, select your own groceries!
• Volunteers will assist you with loading groceries in your vehicle.
