Food Access Resource Markets (FARMs)

The FARM event is an opportunity for our neighbors to get a mix of fresh and non-perishable food items at no cost. There is no identification or income verification requirement-anyone is welcome. 

On the second Tuesday of each month, from 1:00 pm-2:00 pm, the first FARM drive through food event will be held in Student Lot A at Mineral Area College. Patrons are asked to enter the main campus from Flat River Road and turn left into Student Lot A, proceed through the food distribution area and exit the campus at Flat River Road. To avoid traffic issues, please do not use the Hwy O entrance to arrive or depart from this event. 

This event is set up as a drive-through distribution and volunteers and/or staff of Mineral Area College will put food directly into your car. We ask that you have space in your vehicle for the food items and that you do not leave your vehicle during the distribution.

Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the event. The distribution will end at the stated time, or one call food and other resources have been distributed. 

For more information about FARMs or to get schedule updates, please visit stlfoodbank.org/events or follow @ STL Foodbank on Facebook or Instagram.

Business & Community Luncheon

Local resident, Dale Brown was a structural engineer for the company that manufactured the steel for the World Trade Center. He was closely involved in the construction of the Twin Towers. Join us as he shares the inside stories about the unique construction, why the towers fell in the manner they did and what happened to the mid-size company who won the steel manufacturing contract. Not only is it of historical significance, but it also includes multiple business lessons woven throughout the story.

A delicious lunch is available for $10 per person if you pay ahead. If you pay at the door, it will be $15. Out of respect for our caterer, reservations are required by the Tuesday prior to the luncheon. Payment will be accepted at the door. Cancellations must be received by the Tuesday prior to the luncheon in order to receive a refund. Otherwise, payment will be expected.
