Our Programs

The Arlington Food Bank offers essential programs to help those facing hunger in our community. With the support of donors and volunteers, we provide food, run educational workshops, and have special initiatives for children and seniors. Our mission is to ensure everyone in Arlington has access to nutritious meals.

KidSmart

In partnership with the Arlington School District, FREE supplemental meals are available for any student in Arlington School District.

A Simple Gesture

Buy some non-perishable food items when you shop. Place the items in the given bag. On the 2nd Saturday of EVEN months a volunteer will pick it up!

The Mobile Market

Together, with AHS’s “Character Strong Campaign”, we have put our words to action and purchase a refrigerated mobile food pantry to improve services to our community most in need.

πŸ‚ Happy first day of fall! πŸ‚

Today marks the official start of a new season! As summer fades into fall, the days get a little shorter, the air gets a little cooler, and the colors around us begin to change.

These beautiful, colorful bell peppers seem like the perfect way to welcome the new season. From deep purple and bright red to orange and almost white, this colorful harvest is a beautiful reminder that nature comes in all kinds of colors.

A big thank you to Caruso Farm for growing these beautiful peppers and sharing them with us!

Here's to changing seasons, colorful harvests, and all the food things that fall has in store!

What's your favorite thing about fall?

Have you ever seen a white cucumber before? They might look a little different than the cucumbers we are all used to seeing, but don't let their pale color fool you - white cucumbers are crisp, refreshing and delicious!

Did you know that a single cup of white cucumber can give you up to 20% of your daily recommended amount of Vitamin K?

Do you have a preference when it comes to cucumbers? How do you like to eat them?
