Hours are 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the building, which is near Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative at 1002 Texas 154 W.
Price is “plates or $15 donation,” the organization said.
The menu includes catfish, hush puppies, French fries, cole slaw, pinto beans and a free drink: lemonade, tea, or water.
The organization has been honored by the Gilmer Area Chamber of Commerce for its work.
