If you’re a teacher looking to get your kids out of the classroom, a corporate company that wants to get their crew out for a volunteer project, or an individual looking to give back we have just the thing for you.

Our production garden right here in Manchester, NH grows fresh vegetables for the NH Food Bank to distribute to our partner agencies throughout the state. During the spring, summer, and fall, volunteers help with gardening tasks such as planting, weeding, harvesting and general care.

Mission Statement

The mission of the New Hampshire Food Bank is to feed hungry people by soliciting and effectively distributing grocery products, perishable foods, and services through a statewide network of approved agencies; by advocating for systematic change; and by educating the public about the nature of, and solutions to, problems of hunger in New Hampshire.

Description

Serving as the only food bank in the state, the New Hampshire Food Bank distributes millions of pounds of food annually to more than 400 partner agencies, including food pantries, homeless shelters, soup kitchens, children’s programs, senior centers and more. In turn, these agencies provide hunger relief to those suffering from food insecurity throughout the state.
