We serve hundreds of families all at once through a direct “farmer’s market” style distribution format. With our box truck and tractor trailers, the Food Bank provides truckloads of both perishable and nonperishable food to those in need.
We serve hundreds of households all at once through a drive-thru style food distribution format. In this manner, those seeking food assistance can drive up to the distribution, pop their trunk or direct volunteers to load a seat in their car, and receive a months’ worth of nutritiously balanced food assistance with items such as meats, dairy, fruits, vegetables, grains, nonperishables, and other food items. A Mobile Pantry is an orderable distribution in which foods are selected and delivered by the Food Bank to be distributed in a drive-thru distribution style.
Members can order a Mobile Pantry without the need for a physical storage site, allowing Members flexibility to serve more rural areas or use more convenient locations to distribute food. The Food Bank offers two sizes of truck deliveries: a box truck which provides food for 150 to 300 households (up to 12,000 meals) or a tractor trailer which provides food for 350-600 households (up to 24,000 meals).
This is our second-largest program, servicing hundreds of thousands of people each year with staples foods in a convenient and efficient manner. If you would like to become a Member to access this program, please visit our New Members page.
