This week marked the start of Produce Distribution at Oak Park for 2026! 🥕 Staff and volunteers from across Pillsbury United Communities came together to unload pallets, stack boxes, and prepare fresh produce for neighbors in the surrounding community.

In partnership with Second Harvest Heartland this program is one way we help increase access to fresh, healthy food, alongside our Community Meals served year-round on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 4–6pm.

Produce distribution at Oak Park takes place on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month from 4–6pm, with setup beginning at 2:30pm.

Life doesn't pause when someone you love needs you.
🍼 A new baby
🦽 An aging parent
🌡️ a spouse facing a serious illness.

These are the moments that call you away from work and toward the people who matter most.

With Minnesota Paid Leave, you don't have to choose between your family and your finances. Minnesota workers may be eligible to take up to 12 weeks of paid Family Leave to bond with a new child, care for a family member with a serious health condition, or support a loved one called to active military duty.

Paid Leave provides wage replacement and job protections, so you can show up for the people who need you without putting your livelihood at risk.

This is what it looks like when Minnesota has your back.

Lead exposure is particularly dangerous for young children and can lead to brain and nervous system damage, slowed growth and development, and learning and behavior problems.
