USDA Resources

Arkansas Foodbank member agencies may participate in the USDA Commodities Program through TEFAP. Eligibility for distribution of USDA commodities is by contract only. Once approved to receive USDA commodities, an agency must comply with all regulations set forth by the Arkansas Department of Human Services.

Agencies participating receive canned fruit and vegetables, rice, beans, canned meats, juices, and other staple products once a month at no cost. The variety of products change based on availability

Want to become one of our partner agencies?

Arkansas Foodbank member agencies are on-the-ground food pantries that provide direct services in their communities. We also work with schools, college campuses, afterschool programs and senior centers. Several factors are taken into consideration when selecting organizations for membership, including existing food pantries in the area, proximity of the food pantries to each other, proposed days and hours of distribution, and whether the organization will provide a service that is not being provided in that area.

We strongly discourage duplicated efforts, so we suggest using our Find Food Map to determine if current Arkansas Foodbank members already serve your area. If you feel that no agencies are serving your community and you would like to open a pantry.
