Free food pantries, meals, and groceries Jackson County and Medford Oregon.

Several food banks, free emergency pantries and faith based groups in Jackson County provide support to the low-income. While they try not to turn anyone away that may be facing hunger, the food pantries near you (listed below) do have limited resources and hours. Residents of the county, including the city of Medford, can find everything from free groceries, personal toiletries, Meals on Wheels or clothing and information on public aid. There is also a phone number at the bottom of the page for more locations of food banks and hunger prevention programs.

The leading distribution centers to contact in Jackson County for free food today are below. Based on donation levels, and the number of volunteers that are working at the food pantry, they may have some or all of the following. Non-profits will have canned goods, fresh fruits and vegetables, baby formula, meats, and more. Many have personal toiletries or hygiene supplies. A focus is on feeding children in Jackson County as well as senior citizens.

While there are no guarantees, a location may also offer clothing or special holiday meals, including at Christmas or Thanksgiving. Some sites will also direct people living in poverty to SNAP food stamps or similar aid, such as USDA surplus commodities. Even find emergency SNAP food stamps.
