Fresh Food, Grown for Our Community
From across Washington, Good Food Bags bring fresh, locally grown produce directly to our community. Rooted in a mission of food access, environmental stewardship, and community empowerment, each bag supports a more equitable and resilient local food system.
Share in Local Abundance
The Good Food Bags program is an innovative weekly produce subscription that improves access to fresh produce for families in the South Seattle community. We work directly with local farmers to source organically grown fruits and vegetables. That means we are able to direct funds to small sustainable farms in King, Snohomish, Pierce County and beyond.
We prioritize sourcing from immigrant and refugee farmers, BIPOC, female and LGBTQ+ farmers, who often face systemic barriers.
How It Works
Choose from our sliding-scale payment options and pay what you can. We encourage members who are able to join at $14 full cost—helping match a box with every order.
We also offer reduced-cost shares to ensure that everyone in our community can participate.
Select Your Share
Use SNAP or pay for an Access Subsidized Share, or choose a Sustaining or Solidarity share to fund other community members in need.
Choose Your Pickup Site
Select one of our convenient local pickup sites for weekly or biweekly Thursday pickup.
Pick Up Fresh
