Our Building Expansion Project

We are thrilled to announce that Mendo Food Network is currently constructing a newly acquired warehouse in Willits, CA. This state-of-the-art facility represents a significant milestone in our mission to fight hunger and nourish our community. The new warehouse will greatly enhance our services, making them more accessible to our clients and partners across Mendocino County. With expanded food storage and increased capacity for perishables, we will be able to store more fresh, nutritious food than ever before, ensuring that no one in our community goes hungry. This new warehouse is a huge step forward for our organization, and we can't wait to see the positive impact it will have on our ability to serve those in need.

Our Services

Fresh Stories

Food ACCESS 24

Members of our team traveled all the way to our State Capital for Food ACCESS 24 hosted by California Association of Food Banks @cafoodbanks where we were able to pull up a seat to the table with other Food Bankers from across California.

Enhancing Deliveries with Our New Truck at Mendo Food Network

After a long two-year wait, our new refrigerated truck arrived! With a Food Bank Capacity grant through the California Department of Social Services, this addition to our fleet helps us better serve our community. We now have the ability to have a coastal and an inland route throughout Mendocino County. This makes high-quality, locally-grown food more accessible to our food distribution partners. Allowing us to source more food and distribute it more efficiently while eliminating unnecessary waste. We're excited to see how this addition will foster stronger community connections."

Annual Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon

With over 40 volunteers in attendance, we had a great gathering of many but not all of our dedicated volunteers. Thank you to Round Table for hosting such a fun event.
