Grab a snack from the Grab & Go Cooler

Don’t forget about our new Grab & Go Cooler, which our Kitchen Ready team stocks with fresh, healthy, tasty snacks every weekday afternoon.

Please help yourself to a free snack if you’re in the Edington Center or the neighborhood between 3:00 & 6:00 pm, Mon-Fri.

Each weekday, Green Opportunities’ Grab & Go cooler is stocked with fresh fruit, wraps, and other tasty snacks. The cooler is located in the lobby outside of Southside Kitchen.

GO’s new Grab & Go cooler is made possible thanks to a grant from The Kresge Foundation’s #FreshLoinitiative, which supports programs working to increase fresh, local, and equitable food access in communities across the US. Our Grab & Go cooler was donated by MANNA FoodBank.
