The DNATL Community Food Council is working collaboratively to co-create a local food system that provides access to healthy, culturally preferred food to all families in Del Norte and Tribal Lands (DNATL).
COMMUNITY FOOD COUNCIL PROGRAMS
The CFC has a variety of programs to increase access to healthy food through out DNATL, including food recovery, community food forests, Pacific Pantry, and more. Click the Program links to learn more about our different programs or check out the menu at the top of the page.
Pacific North Fresh Mobile Market
The Pacific North Fresh Mobile Market will bring all of the Del Norte and Tribal Lands Community Food Council (DNATL CFC) food distribution programs directly to the community by hosting a distribution once a month in Klamath, Smith River, and Gasquet. Community members will now have a chance to access all food programs, which include Senior Boxes, The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), Waste Not Weekly, and a choice based monthly food pantry box by attending a distribution in their local area.
The Mobile Pantry allows clients to visit the pantry once a month and choose the items they need the most. The number of items allowed are based on household size. Clients can choose from dairy, butter, eggs, cheese, meat, fresh vegetables, bread, and a variety of rice, pasta, sauce, tuna, peanut butter and other shelf stable and frozen foods.
The mobile pantry schedule is:
1st Tuesday: Klamath
3rd Tuesday: Smith River
4th Tuesday: Gasquet
On a client’s first visit, they will need to provide a picture id and self-certify income levels and household size. Some programs will be available without id and signing into the system.

PACIFIC PANTRY
Pacific Pantry is a choice-based food pantry model that allows clients to “shop” in the pantry, choosing the foods that go into their food boxes. The only one of its kind in the county, the model creates a dignified experience for clients, allows for cultural and dietary food choices, and minimizes food waste. We choose local and organic products whenever possible.
FOOD FOREST
The Food Forest Project offers many opportunities for volunteers to get their hands dirty and participate in sustainable agriculture training.
EDUCATION
Food security means reliable access to nutritious, culturally relevant food for all people to live an active, healthy life. We work with community partners to research the factors affecting access in our community, identify gaps and challenges, and create solutions.
Nutrition, cooking, farming, and gardening education is key to empowering our community with the knowledge and skills to access and choose healthier foods.
EAT LOCAL
DNATL CFC is working to build a vibrant local food economy and regional food system that supports local producers and provides fresh, healthy food to all.
