Angel Baskets manages and staffs the San Miguel Regional Food Bank in Telluride and provides food for the food banks in Norwood, Redvale and the west end of Montrose County. The San Miguel Regional Food Bank is located in space provided by San Miguel County.

The food is primarily purchased by Angel Baskets or is donated by organizations, churches and individuals. Angie Peterson, Food Bank Director, said, “We saw a need in the middle section of this community for the people who don’t qualify … for government programs. Social Services came to us and said, ‘You understand the need. Can you run a food bank?’ As a non-profit we could fill that niche.”

The food banks provide a year round emergency food supply that sustains families during difficult economic times.
