 Food banks and pantries need more than shelf-stable goods. Fresh produce, garden extras, and healthy staples go a long way toward feeding families with dignity. 

👉To make it easier, we've created a resource page with links to local food banks, pantries, farms, and community programs where you can donate directly.

Your time is one of the most valuable gifts you can give. From helping pack bags at a food pantry, to supporting farmers in fields, to serving meals at community kitchens, volunteers make the difference every single day.

Gleaning:  Farmers often have surplus crops left in the field. Gleaning, harvesting what’s left, prevents waste and gets fresh food to those in need. 

Farm Help:  Many farms also welcome seasonal volunteers to help with planting, harvesting, and food distribution. 

Farmer's Markets:  You can also support farmers by shopping at local farmers’ markets, where your purchases directly strengthen small farms and keep fresh food in your community. 

 Policy shapes every part of our food system, from what farmers can grow to how food is priced to who has access to healthy meals. Lasting change happens when communities speak up together. 

Advocacy means more than signing a petition, it’s showing up at town halls, writing letters to representatives, raising awareness on social media, and pushing for legislation that makes fresh, nourishing food available to all. 

Use your voice to call for better access to fresh, healthy food. From signing petitions to contacting representatives, advocacy helps turn local action into systemic change.

 Everyone has something to offer, and creativity can be a powerful form of generosity. 

Gardeners can share backyard produce with local pantries. Chefs and home cooks can prepare 

community meals. Artists and musicians can host benefit shows or auctions. Students can organize food drives or awareness campaigns. Businesses can sponsor screenings, donate a portion of sales, or match employee contributions. 

Every unique gift, whether it’s food, time, talent, or resources, adds to the movement and helps nourish both bodies and communities.
