About us
The Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona responds to the root causes of hunger, and seeks to restore dignity, health, opportunity and hope to people living in poverty. Our mission is to change lives in the communities we serve by feeding the hungry today, and building a healthy, hunger-free tomorrow. Our programs include emergency food assistance and free meals, as well as a farmers’ market, community gardens, nutrition education, culinary training, support for local growers and food systems, advocacy, and more. We partner with over 350 organizations to serve five counties of southern Arizona—over 23,000 square miles. We’re a proud member of Feeding America, a nationwide network of food banks and hunger relief organizations. In 2018, we were named Food Bank of the Year by Feeding America.

Glad to be a part of the #FoodBankflyin this week with about 100 of our Feeding America food bank partners visiting Capitol Hill. We talked with Arizona Senator Mark Kelly about the upcoming #FarmBill and appreciate his support. The farm bill is the largest piece of federal legislation for food and farming, and it affects access to nutritious food for millions of people facing hunger in our country.

#Grateful for the rain! It helps the Malabar spinach take off in the garden. This plant is a popular leafy green vegetable with leaves and shoots that are edible and have a mild, slightly peppery flavor. It does well in our Southern Arizona summer. #growyourownfood #localfood #freshveggies #nuestratierragarden
