Everyone deserves access to nourishing food and a sense of stability. Whether this is a short-term setback or a longer journey, the Food Bank of Northern Nevada is here with compassion, dignity, and real support—so you can focus on what matters most.
The Food Bank of Northern Nevada distributes food to partner pantries across our region so neighbors can pick up free groceries close to home.
These community sites offer pantry staples with a simple check-in, regular hours, and welcoming, judgment-free service making it easier to keep your household fed without extra stress.
We bring fresh produce to convenient community stops at no cost.
Mobile Harvest is designed for quick, respectful visits with drive-through or walk-up options (depending on the site).
Recurring neighborhood stops make it simple to pick up fruits and vegetables on a schedule that works for you.
Children learn, grow, and thrive when nutritious meals are available.
We connect kids to free, healthy meals served at schools, parks, and community sites throughout the year welcoming, family-friendly locations where it’s easy to find a time and place that fits your routine.
Older adults deserve reliable access to nourishing food and the dignity of choice.
We provide senior-focused food assistance through partnerships and programs tailored to this stage of life helping neighbors eat well, stretch a fixed income, and maintain independence with support close to home.
If money is tight, our team offers one-on-one, confidential support to apply for or renew SNAP (food stamps).
We can check basic eligibility, explain what documents are needed, help complete the application, and answer questions about how benefits work. We offer patient guidance from start to finish.
Knowledge is power. Our nutrition team shares practical ways to eat well on a budget with simple, pantry-based recipes that balance great taste with nutritious options. Supporting Wellness at Pantries (SWAP) helps promote nutrition without judgment, and our Prescription Pantry (Rx) program connects families with foods that support better health.
Family Health Festivals are free community events that bring helpful resources together in one welcoming place.
Families can access food support and connect with local health and community services making it easier to learn about what’s available and get the help you need.
