Las Cruces food pantry to expand as residents struggle with rising cost of living

The local source article “Las Cruces food pantry to expand as residents struggle with rising cost of living,” dated August 10, 2023, reports Casa de Peregrinos had repeatedly declined farmers' donations for lack of storage, director Lorenzo Alba Jr. told KRWG in its August 10, 2023 report. The Las Cruces pantry was preparing to expand into a facility with more fresh-food storage. Its old building had been intended to distribute about half a million pounds annually; the pantry was handling that amount in roughly six weeks. We serve Las Cruces and Mesilla, extending along the Rio Grande through Radium Springs and Hatch, and south toward La Union and Sunland Park. The I-10 corridor connects Deming and Lordsburg, with Columbus and Rodeo toward the border. Gila-area service includes Silver City and Hurley, continuing through Gila, Cliff and Glenwood toward Reserve and Quemado. Rio Grande coverage also reaches Hillsboro, Truth or Consequences, Williamsburg and Elephant Butte, then San Antonio, Socorro and Magdalena farther north

In its August 10, 2023 report, KRWG contrasted the old building's annual design volume with six weeks of distribution. That throughput does not tell a renter how much food will be held at once.
