UPCOMING EVENTS 3
Its a brisk all morning here at Pike
Place Market. The amiliar scent o
pastries in the air, the chill o ice
poured over sh displays and the
songs o Market buskers bring a skip to
my step. Tourists and locals alike begin to
ll the Market, shopping or resh ood and
handmade crats. Meanwhile hundreds o
seniors, amilies and downtown residents
are lining up a ew foors below at the Pike
Market Food Bank.
The Market community is a place where people
care about you and love you,says Linda, a
volunteer and resident o the Pike Place Market
community. Were all here for each other.Linda arrives at 7:30 AM to start her 6-hour
volunteer shit and, like many o the volunteers,
shell leave carrying her own bag o groceries
as a ellow shopper o the Food Bank.
The Food Bank is a small warehouse
space located inside o the Pike Market
Parking Garage. More than 500 amilies and
households rely on the Food Bank every
week to provide groceries to help them get
by. Dapper Darrell,as he is lovingly named
or his high-ashion style, welcomes each
and every person with a smile.
A dozen volunteers stand ready to hand
out crates ull o staples: rice, pasta, beans,
canned tuna or ham, milk, tea or coee,
juice and bread. Whats unique about the
Pike Market Food Bank is the mound o
resh produce that is donated every day
by our Market armers.
Meanwhile, volunteers are buzzing around
in the back room, unloading pallets o
FoodfromthesoulFor decades, Pike Market Producer, Lina, has donated whatshe doesnt sell to Pike Market Food Bank. Overall, ourMarket armers donate up to 500 pounds o ruits andveggies every week to eed the hungry at Pike Place Market.

MADE wITH lOVE FROM SAIgON
As hundreds o Food Bank shoppers wind
their way through the lengthy line, at the
Pike Market Senior Center a long row
o soup bowls are lled with piping hot
portions o pho noodle soup, prepared
by a group o Vietnamese women. Its a
special lunch eventWorld Table Saigon.
There is not a lack of food in this country,
but there is a lack of effective distribution
in a form they can use it,says Michael
Montgomery, Meals Program Manager at
the Pike Place Senior Center. More than
80% o regular members to the Senior
Center are homeless, with nowhere to
store groceries or prepare meals. Thats
why hot, healthy meals cooked up at the
Senior Center are just as needed as the
packaged groceries at the Food Bank.
In addition to a lack o ood, many
members o the Senior Center are dealing
with health issues like diabetes and
hypertension. Michael prides himsel in
cooking not only 4,000 hot meals a month,
but meals that are healthy too, meeting
the nutritional guidelines or seniors.
When youre hungry, your day-to-day
becomes about food, says Michael. Here
at the Senior Center people get to sit down
and have a meal together that is cooked
with carewhere at least for a little while
they can put their worries aside.
