The Salina Food Bank offers 7 food programs (in partnership with the Kansas Food Bank in Wichita, KS) that serve the residents of Saline County, Kansas. Our largest program is the Weekly Grocery Program, which feeds over 300 households every week. In 2024, the Salina Food Bank filled over 14,000 requests for food. We have an on-site garden and regularly pick up fresh produce from grocery stores, but there is always a need for more fresh food. In addition to fresh food, pantry staples, and frozen meats, we offer hygiene products like soaps and toothbrushes.

ProducePedia
ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
