These events are held as first come first serve until we run out of food. We recommend bringing your own reusable bags and/or cart. There will be a welcome table to sign-in for participation to receive food assistance.

*New Process for Market Participation*

The San Diego Food Bank has initiated a new distribution process in which participants can receive a Food Bank ID card.  In order to receive the ID card, an intake form will need to be completed, found here.  This card can be used at all future food distributions and throughout San Diego County including all campuses within the San Diego Community College District.  

You are welcome to bring the application prefilled or complete a printed copy on the day of the food distribution, as a wet signature is required.  We will do our best to provide an ID card by the next food distribution. 

Please note: if you have received a Food Bank ID card from another agency within San Diego County, you will not need to complete another intake form.  As mentioned, the ID card can be used at all food distribution.
