Policy on Distribution

Our normal distribution period begins at 9:00 am on a Saturday, ending at 11:00 am.  If weather, mechanical difficulties, or unforeseen circumstances force a delay, then we will begin distribution no later than 3:00 pm Saturday.  If we are unable to begin by 3:00 pm Saturday, then distribution will be rescheduled for 3:00 pm the following day, Sunday.

If we are unable to begin on Sunday, then distribution will be delayed for one week until the following Saturday.  If that fails, then the next action will be posted at St. Margaret’s and announced on the Angel Food hotline (949) 661-0110 x 310.  Angel Food must be picked up during the actual distribution period, whether normal or rescheduled; this is a condition of sale. St. Margaret’s is not responsible for the loss of food not claimed during scheduled distribution.
