Nutrition

An important video to watch to understand the role of nutrition in aging healthfully.

MEAL DRIVE-THRU SERVICE
The drive-thru meal service, for all individuals 60 and older, operates Monday through Friday from 11:30 am - 12:00 pm
at the Grand Forks Senior Center (620 4th Ave S). You may pick up for family members, neighbors, friends, etc. You will need to fill out a nutrition form for each senior getting a meal and we will issue you key-tags, so that you can scan a barcode every time you come through after that. You DO NOT need a Grand Forks Senior Center membership in order to receive meals.

SENIOR DINING
Sitting down and enjoying weekday breakfast and lunch together has resumed at the Grand Forks Senior Center. Breakfast serves from 8:30 am - 9:00 am. The noon hot meal serves from 11:45 am- 12:15 pm. People can stay later to enjoy their meal and visit.

FROZEN MEALS
Frozen meals are also available for people 60 and older. We ask that you call your frozen meal order in ahead of time to 701-757-4869. The meals can then be picked up during the meal drive-thru time (M-F, 11:30 am - 12:00 pm) or at the front desk during work hours. We update our frozen meal inventory on a daily basis. Check out our current list of frozen meals before calling. Arrangements can be made for delivery of frozen meals if necessary.

SUGGESTED DONATIONS/PAYMENTS for Drive-thru, Sit-Down, or Frozen Meals
If you would like to contribute to your meals (this is optional), you can mail us a check (indicate on the memo line ‘meals received’) to Grand Forks Senior Center, 620 4th Ave S, Grand Forks, ND 58201 or drop off cash or a check in the meal drive-thru or at the front desk. You can also call 701-772-7245 with your credit card or EBT card information. Suggested donation is $2/breakfast, $4.25/noon meal, or $3.50/frozen meal. PLEASE NOTE: If you hand us a check in the drive-thru or you mail a check in a Meals on Wheels envelope, we will assume you are sending in a meal contribution. This means it will NOT be listed in the Silver Express newsletter and it is NOT tax-deductible because you received meals for the money you are contributing. However, if you would like to make a donation, designate that on the ‘Memo’ line of your check or send a note with your check so we know your intentions.

MEAL DELIVERY PROGRAMS
The Grand Forks Senior Center’s two meal delivery programs, Meals on Wheels and Home Delivered Meals, continue to provide hot, weekday meals to seniors delivered safely by volunteers. If you are interested in learning more about meal delivery, call Roxie, the Meals on Wheels coordinator at 701-757-2006. She will be able to advise which program will work best for you.
