SV Food Initiative


A Community Response to Food Insecurity in Sonoma Valley

When SNAP benefits are disrupted, families go hungry. More than 8,000 Sonoma Valley residents face food insecurity — including children, elders, and working families.

You can help. Donate one bag of groceries a month, right from your doorstep.

In collaboration, Simple Gesture and ExtraFood, your donation will be delivered to multiple organizations, pantries and community fridges across Sonoma Valley.
Our next pick-ups are scheduled for:
November 8 — Fueling the shelves at Unity Kitchen Pantry
December TBD — Feeding families through Comida Para Todos/ Food for all

3. Put the Bag Out Front by 9 AM on Pickup Day
Our volunteer drivers collect your donation and deliver it to 10+ food access points in Sonoma Valley — including food pantries, community fridges, and delivery partners.
