Dedicated VINE volunteers deliver a nutritious noon meal each weekday to people living in Mankato, North Mankato, Skyline, Le Hillier, and Eagle Lake who find it difficult to shop for or prepare their meals. There are no age or income requirements; our program serves those in need of healthy nutrition. Meal recipients also benefit from a valuable safety check each day. If something is amiss, VINE staff quickly responds to get needed help. 

The meals include a variety of cooked meats, vegetables, salads, fruits, and desserts. VINE receives no government subsidies and, thanks to a long-term partnership with J. D. Truffles Catering, we provide a delicious and affordable meal for the very low cost of $4.50. Recipients are billed monthly and ACH withdrawals are available upon request.

Call (507) 387-4076 to sign up for VINE’s Hot Meals on Wheels program. 

Calls must be made by 3 p.m. the day prior to the day you want to order or cancel a meal. Cancellations or orders after 3 p.m. will not be honored. Please, only call the hotline number at (507) 387-4076. This number is available 24/7 and is an answering machine only.
