Lafayette runs on two food rhythms: Community Connection Church's third-Monday monthly giveaway on the Highway 52 Bypass — starting at 9:30 a.m. and running until supplies last — and the Macon County food bank's weekly Thursday-afternoon window, listed on the county's own community assistance page.
The Third-Monday Giveaway
Community Connection Church at 654 TN-52 Bypass hosts its food giveaway on the third Monday of every month from 9:30 a.m. until supplies run out — arrive early. The church office — (615) 688-2424 — keeps hours Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday 9 a.m.–1 p.m. for questions between giveaways.
The County Food Bank's Thursday Window
Macon County's community assistance page points residents to the county food bank on Thursday afternoons, noon–5 p.m. — call (615) 666-3497. Between the weekly Thursday window and the monthly Monday giveaway, Lafayette households have coverage most of the month; Tennessee 211 and Second Harvest of Middle Tennessee's locator cover anything else.
