Community Food Programs
Marion Polk Food Share supports a variety of programs that deliver meals, support local food pantries, grow fresh produce, and bring the community together through gardens and events.
Meals on Wheels
Meals on Wheels provides nutritious food, friendly visits and safety checks that allow seniors and disabled adults in Salem and Keizer to live full, independent lives. Every weekday, volunteer drivers deliver healthy meals and valuable safety interactions that provide our homebound neighbors with stability, community and comfort. Seniors can receive home meal delivery, view menus, and find information about community meal sites.
Food Pantries
Marion Polk Food Share’s network of pantries and meal sites throughout Marion and Polk counties ensure everyone can access the food they need to work, learn, and thrive. Along with our network of partner food pantries, Marion Polk Food Share operates two food programs – one in Woodburn and one in Grand Ronde. While we do not provide food at our warehouse in Salem, support is always within reach.
Farm & Gardens
Our Youth Farm program and community garden spaces increase access to locally grown produce, strengthen community relationships, and cultivates a new generation of leaders by engaging young people in farming for the community. These programs support both immediate food needs and long-term food security across Marion and Polk counties.
