Storehouse New Mexico is one of New Mexico’s largest food pantries. Our mission is fighting hunger in our community — work we’ve been doing for over 50 years. We offer FREE groceries to people in need. Many families fall in a gap we refer to as the ‘working poor.’ They earn too much to get SNAP (formerly food stamps), but a major car repair, medical bill, or reduced hours at work can have them wondering where their next meal might come from.
New Mexico ranks among the worst in the nation for hunger, for both children and adults. With the support of donors and volunteers, in 2025 we were able to feed nearly 78,000 people who turned to our pantry for food.
The Storehouse is open Wednesday, Fridays, & Saturdays from 9 am – 12 noon.
If you or someone you know is skipping meals and going hungry, let them know the Storehouse food pantry is here to help. People who visit the Storehouse receive a full shopping cart of free groceries, including a pre-packed box of nonperishable items, plus meats, dairy, and fruits and/or vegetables. The food is being pre-packed in carts by our staff and volunteers. Each person will check in with our staff, get a number, and then collect their food outside at the south door. Full information on what to bring and our calendar is on the Need Food page.
