Food Distributions
Food Box Program
Many in Flagstaff have a tough time making ends meet. That’s why our food box program is so important in helping families stretch their monthly food budgets. We offer a food box including a variety produce, protein, and other donated items along with an Emergency Food Box (EFB), both of which are available as often as needed.
Neighborhood Distributions
Some people can’t make it to our regular warehouse food bank during distribution hours, so we bring fresh produce and other food staples to other locations around the community! Our neighborhood mobile distributions occur Tuesday-Saturdays during the mornings and afternoons.
Mobile Produce Markets
We’re excited to offer our Client Choice Produce Market at all of our mobile neighborhood distributions—for both drive-through and walk-ups. Now, clients can personally browse and select from a variety of fresh produce and grocery items, promoting greater dignity, choice, and equity in how we serve our community.
Our Kitchen
Hot Meals
Dinners are prepared daily by staff and volunteers to provide a variety of healthy foods to anyone who needs a hot meal. You may choose to dine-in or take to go. We also deliver hot meals to Flagstaff Shelter Services (4185 E. Huntington Dr.) for those spending the night.
Daily — 4 pm to 5:30 pm
Grocery Rescue
We rescue almost one million pounds of food from local restaurants and grocery stores annually. This program accounts for 20% of our total food intake and also keeps food out of Flagstaff’s landfill.
Agency Shopping
Through this program, we provide support to many local nonprofits in accessing food for their clients through our food bank. Our ability to serve those in need is greatly expanded by partnering with these organizations. If you’re interested in signing up, click the button below to see if your organization qualifies.
By Appointment Only: Tuesdays & Thursdays — 1 pm to 3 pm
