“Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, families who rely on Wisconsin FoodShare (SNAP) benefits may experience interruptions or delays beginning November 1, 2025.
At Viking Village Foods, we’re closely monitoring the situation and staying in touch with our state and federal partners to make sure we have the most up-to-date information. Our teams are ready to assist every customer with understanding, care, and respect.
We also believe in the power of community, especially when times get tough. That’s why we’re proud to host Boy Scout Troop 247’s annual “Camping for Cans” right here at Viking Village Foods on November 8–9. The Scouts will camp outside our store for 24 hours, collecting non-perishable food donations to support local families in need. We host this event annually, but this year it will be more important than ever to get as much participation as possible!
To make an even bigger impact, Viking Village Foods matches each item collected—doubling the total donation and helping even more of our neighbors through local food banks and community partners.
If you’re able, please stop by, say hello to the Scouts, and drop off a few items to help fill the shelves. Every can makes a difference.
Together, we can make sure no neighbor is left behind. Thank you for your compassion, patience, and continued trust as we navigate this time as a community.”
