Make a in Difference in a Child's Life this Summer



Donate-A-Box Program


School is out for the summer, and for many kids it is a time of relaxation and fun in the sun. For some it can be a time of worry and anxiety. For the kids and families who rely on free and reduced-priced school meals, the summer break can be a worrisome and difficult time.

Donate-A-Box Program


Through Donate-A-Box, you have the opportunity to help children and families facing hunger get access to nutritious and healthy produce. 

Donate-A-Box is a unique program that easily connects local farms - to local food banks - to local families. It's a simple way to make a difference. Anyone can donate!

HOW YOU CAN HELP
Summer is a time many of you plan vacations, or time away from home. Did you know? If you need to place your delivery on hold - when you "skip your box" we've made it easy to donate that box to a local food bank! You can donate anytime though, it's not a requirement to donate.     

We've Made Donating Simple and Convenient
  • Donate Any Time - It takes just a few minutes to easily make a fresh produce donation from our website.  
  • Anyone Can Donate! - You don't have to be a Farm Fresh To You member to donate. Share this program with your family and friends! 
  • We'll Handle It - No need to collect items and distribute them yourself. You choose the size and the amount of boxes to donate, and we'll pack and deliver it for you!
  • Tax Receipts - A Donation Confirmation (with the Food Bank’s Tax ID number) will be emailed to the payment/billing email address. Farm Fresh To You members can also view a log of donations and download a tax receipt at the end of the year.
  • A Fresh New Take on Donations - Take advantage of this unique opportunity! We have 6 regional food banks that are set up to receive and distribute fresh fruits and vegetables donated by you.
