Who We Are
Family Food Box Ag Program.
The Family Food Box Program distributes fresh, nutritious food directly to families of students at partner school districts. Each month, more than 1000 households in Esparto, Winters, and West Sacramento, and Woodland receive a box of locally grown produce and a bag of pantry staples through convenient, drive-through distributions hosted at local schools.
Thanks to Sutter Health, Yolo Food Bank is providing nutritious and culturally appropriate food to an average of 200 agricultural workers monthly directly to their place of work or residence.
Families in these areas face some of the highest rates of food insecurity in Yolo County. By partnering with school districts, volunteers, and local funders, we’re making healthy food more accessible and building stronger, more connected communities.
What We Do
Family Food Box Ag Program.
Family Food Box Ag was born out of our “Yolo County Food Access Survey,” which revealed a staggering 53% of agricultural worker households in Yolo County are food insecure. Since it's inception, Yolo Food Bank proudly serves ~200 agricultural worker households in Yolo County, providing critical, culturally appropriate food to this essential community
