Heavenly Groceries collects foods from local sources to hand out at St Joseph Christian Methodist Church on Rosemary Street. They set up the basement of the church to look like a grocery store and individuals from the community come through with their own bags and take home groceries for the week. It appeared that most of the groceries that week were provided by Trader Joes. Any groceries that were damaged or not good anymore were saved for the hogs, so no food went to waste.

Student volunteers help out church members and on the day I was there student were in charge of picking up the food and driving in back to the church in the churches own van as well as unpacking and setting up all the food.
