ALBION – A pop-up food distribution scheduled for Monday morning in Albion has been cancelled.

Katrina Chaffee, director of community services for Community Action, was called today by the food distributor. She expects it will be rescheduled in the future.

During the distributions about 200 people typically receive bags and boxes of food at the village’s municipal parking lot at 165 Platt St.

The events in Albion are run by Community Action with food delivered by Foodlink in Rochester.

The schedule through June for Albion includes March 13, March 27, April 10, May 8 and June 12. The events are scheduled to start at 8:30 although many of the vehicles are in the parking lot well before that.
