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.

We know that accessing the food bank isn't always easy, and transportation can be a challenge for many of our neighbors. That's why our Mobile Market brings fresh produce and pantry staples into neighborhoods, making it easier for our neighbors to access the food that they need.

One of the best parts is that no appointment is needed! Simply stop by at one of our Mobile Market locations, and our team will be there to welcome you. Don't forget to bring a few bags!

Our Mobile Market is just one of the many ways we're working to make food more accessible and to ensure that everyone in our community has the opportunity to receive fresh nutritious food.

Did you know that every part of a beet is edible, even the leafy green tops?!

Beets are packed with nutrients that help keep your body healthy:
🥕 Rich in fiber which supports digestion.
❤ High in folate, which helps your body make healthy new cells.
💪Great source of potassium, which supports muscles and heart health.
🛡Full of antioxidants to help protect your body's cells.

Beet greens are just as nutritious as the root and can be cooked the same way you would spinach or Swiss chard-simply sauté them with a little olive oil and garlic for a delicious side dish!

Have you ever cooked with beets before? We'd love to hear your favorite way to enjoy them!
