Anyone Who Is Hungry,

Is Welcome At Our Table

With 1 in 8 residents in Macon County facing food insecurity, there needs to be a table to feed our neighbors.

With the support of a team of amazing volunteers, we are proud to provide a healthy meal 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

We nourish, educate and revitalize the people in our community.

Growing Better Together

We Grow Fresh, Local Produce Through our Mercy Gardens

We are Innovating and partnering to Meet Community Needs.

Since 1982 The Good Samaritan Inn has served the community through leadership of a diverse staff supported by volunteers, the Decatur faith community, the Old King’s Orchard Neighborhood and the many good samaritans in our community.

In recent years, we have developed gardens to revitalize our neighborhoods, expand access to fresh, nutrient-dense produce, and increased our community partnerships to further impact Decatur and Macon County.

We are so blessed by our volunteers each and every day. Some come regularly and others as-needed or as they are available.

Some volunteer with friends, their church, a workplace, or an organization and others come as individuals. We encourage volunteers of every age and background and value diversity and community.
