The Maryland Food bank is excited to fulfill our goals of distributing more food and helping reduce food waste through the Middle Mile Program, which connects the hospitality industry to hungry Marylanders.
To meet the current need of the more than 650,000 food-insecure Marylanders, we need to distribute more food annually and have a plan to grow from 45 million pounds to 61 million pounds through MFB 2.0
From large scale farms to community and backyard gardens, farmers and gardeners off all types play a role in making Maryland healthier.
We’re providing access to more nutritious foods and making sure hungry Marylanders have the resources and knowledge to make healthier choices
The Food First Grant Program is designed to expand partner capacity, strengthening our network. The grant money will be used for a variety of capacity-building projects aimed at increasing the amount of food partners distribute, expanding their service hours, transporting and handling perishable foods, and providing additional services to help clients address the root causes of hunger.
