Great Teams Are Built on More Than Just Hard Work! 💚

At Manna | Durango Community Resource , our incredible staff shows up every day with compassion, dedication, and a shared commitment to serving our community. But just as important as the work we do is the time we spend connecting, laughing, and growing together as a team!

Last month, we had the wonderful opportunity to visit Anatolian Farms , enjoy a tour, share some amazing food, and spend quality time together outside of our busy days at Manna.

These moments remind us that the strength of Manna comes from the people behind our mission. When we strengthen our connections with one another, we strengthen the care and compassion we bring to our community every day.

A heartfelt thank you to Anatolian Farms for the warm hospitality and memorable experience!

Here’s to great food, great people, and an incredible team that makes Manna More Than a Soup Kitchen!

Six Years of Feeding Our Community, Together. 💚

For more than six years, the Chip Huntoon Annual Food Drive has brought our community together around one simple but powerful idea: neighbors helping neighbors. Please share this post, donate what you can, and help us continue feeding our community with dignity and care.

This year, Rotary Club of Durango Daybreak: The Hands On Club and Manna Durango Community Resource are once again asking our community to help stock Manna’s shelves and provide food for local families and seniors experiencing food insecurity.

Help Fill Our Shelves
Saturday, October 10 | 9 AM to 1 PM

Drop off donations at:
Albertsons • Nature’s Oasis • City Market North • City Market South

Some of our greatest needs include canned fruit, canned vegetables, canned proteins, peanut butter, oatmeal, cereal, pasta, and personal care items.

Want to Volunteer?
We need a few extra hands to help make this year’s drive a success!

This September, we’re celebrating National Fruits & Veggies Month — a time to highlight all the ways fresh, colorful produce supports a healthier community. We’re proud to feature Manna Durango, one of our local partners making fruits and veggies more accessible for everyone in La Plata County.

Manna grows over 2,000 pounds of produce each year in their onsite garden, and all of it is shared with the community at no cost. Their partnerships with local farmers help keep food out of the waste stream and on people’s tables through an innovative “after‑market” purchasing program.

Manna distributes fresh fruits and vegetables through their food market thanks to twice monthly deliveries from Care & Share, and their partnership with Just Peachy has brought tens of thousands of pounds of Colorado‑grown produce into daily meals and community distribution.

This month — and every month — we celebrate the organizations that make healthy food accessible, support local agriculture, and strengthen community wellbeing. Thank you, Manna, for everything you do to help our community have more fruits, more veggies, and more ways to thrive.
