Frequently Asked Questions

Our most frequently asked questions about basket registration and pickup answered for you.

Who can register for a Thanksgiving Basket?

Registration is open to all Dane County residents. Baskets are limited to the first 4,000 households registered.

How do I get my basket?

After registering for a Thanksgiving Basket, you will receive a postcard in the mail. Postcards will arrive the week before basket pickup. You must bring this postcard with you to pick up your basket. Baskets will be distributed Saturday, Nov. 18, through Monday, Nov. 20.

Extra Baskets

On Tuesday, Nov. 21, from 9am-noon, we will distribute the baskets that have not been picked up, as well as extra items that were donated. Baskets are available first come, first served.

Come to the Goodman Center Ironworks parking lot (149 Waubesa St.). People who come this day are not guaranteed a basket, but last year we gave out more than 300 that were missing only one or two items.
