Good morning, Pueblo.

A food pantry at the Sunny Side Market on Pueblo's East Side offers two free bags of groceries every Thursday—providing fresh produce, pasta, and bread for families in need.

The service started in 2021 when Care and Share Food Bank opened the pantry after a grocery store closed and is now managed by Grace Community Center, serving nearly 300 people each week.

Rocky Mountain SER received a $150,000 federal grant to plan a grocery store at the former Spann Elementary School on Pueblo's East Side—community input events are set for April 5 and April 15 to gather ideas for a future store that will offer 100% locally sourced foods.

A traffic accident closed northbound I-25 just south of Cimarron exit 141 on March 27th—so drivers are asked to use alternate routes until the road reopens.
