Tabitha’sWaymaking switchtoCl­ientChoice

- By Melissa Prins

If you haven’t had a chance to stop by Tabitha’s Way in Spanish Fork, you will be surprised to see all of the changes going on. At the end of March, they purchased the old Fritzi’s building, which has more recently been known as Blue Table Painting.

Now, as they look forward to five months of constructi­on, they will be working out the kinks as they make the transition to becoming a Client Choice pantry on April 18 at their current location at 140 N. Main in Spanish Fork.

The whole staff is very enthusiast­ic about this change. Not only does it mean that there will be more nutritious food options for their clients, but it will also give their patrons control of their food choices. The new Tabitha’s Way pantry will be set up like a small grocery store. There will be aisles stocked with canned goods, fresh produce, refrigerat­ors with dairy products, freezers with meat options and so much more. Each client will be able to grab a grocery cart and choose their food at each visit.

The pantry will have new hours to accommodat­e their clients and are actively seeking new volunteers to come and be shopping assistants, intake representa­tives, market stockers and so much more. As of April 18, the new pantry hours will be as follows: Tuesdays: 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays: 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Second and fourth Saturdays: 10 a.m. to noon. Closed Sundays and Mondays.
