Support our Back to School Campaign!

Idaho is home to more than 67,000 kids with food insecurity – meaning they lack access at times to enough food to support a healthy and active lifestyle.

That means 14% of children in Idaho may not get enough to eat is a problem by itself, but its implications extend well beyond just hunger pangs.

The Idaho Foodbank is raising critical funding to ensure kids have the food they need to thrive through the Backpack and School Pantry programs.

August: Harvest time!

We are in the middle of harvest season and our warehouse features a good variety of local produce. From the orchard in Caldwell, the pears are full and plentiful. Plums are also abundant. This season, we are starting to receive early onions from harvests that will continue for the coming months. We also have peaches that will be on their way to The Idaho Foodbank. Thank you to Idaho’s hard-working farmers for their generous donations.
