Food Assistance
Food is Free Benicia
The Food is Free Benicia Program is a community-based effort, originating from Sustainable Solano, that uses a public “food stand” to share free produce and food items with residents. It operates on a model of giving and receiving, where people can take what they need and leave what they can, such as excess garden produce, spices, or canned goods. The program also coordinates with Food is Free Bay Area for larger distribution events at the Benicia Library.
The Food is Free Bay Area program, in partnership with the Benicia Public Library, provides free groceries to the community at the library. The distributions are held at the library, and while there have been past summer events, a new schedule with the next event is set for the second Saturday of each month from 10 AM to 12 PM. All residents are welcome, and you just need to bring a bag to carry your items.
