Shepherd’s Table

The food service program is at the heart of the mission of Shepherd's Table. Through the extraordinary efforts of thousands of volunteers, dedicated staff and countless donors, the evening meal has been served without interruption since December, 1983. That's 32+ years of feeding hungry people in our community. In November of 2008, we served our 1,000,000th meal.On Sunday, December 16, 2012 we served our first brunch meal, beginning our 30th year of service. Through a special appeal in October 2012, funding for the Thierry Musel Brunch Program was secured for 2013. No longer will our clients and dinner guests be hungry during the day on the weekends. Thanks to all of our donors and volunteers for bringing this program to life. Shepherd's Table is mightily blessed with the support of the local Silver Spring community, folks throughout Montgomery County and the greater DC region. Strong financial support, consistent donations of in-kind gifts, amazing food recovery from local grocery stores, restaurants, bakeries and farmer's markets along with the fabulous service by volunteers, and a dedicated staff all combine to make the evening meal and brunch program possible. Our dinner/brunch volunteers are composed of a wide array of people: adults, youth, young adults, court ordered folks, service learning students and teams of people from churches and synagogues, businesses and schools, and organizations throughout the area. Brunch Meal Served Saturday and Sunday, 10:30 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.; Evening Meals Served Daily, 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
