Community Food Bank Serving Folsom, ElDorado Hills & Granite Bay
Each week, local families and individuals select their own groceries at on-site distributions.
Open every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings, grocery distribution features a fresh produce stand, stocked meat and dairy counter, nonperishables, TEFAP bags, a bread and dessert selection, and more.

Every Thursday, food bank volunteers load the van with produce, nonperishables, meat, milk, protein drinks, and more, and set up a mobile pantry at low-income housing complexes around town.
The Pantry on Wheels (POW) program ensures seniors and other residents have access to nutritious food despite facing limited mobility or transportation.

One of Twin Lakes Food Bank’s oldest programs, our Angels on Wheels (AOW) deliver groceries to qualified housebound guests in our community.
Angels get to know enrolled guests, and shop for them at the food bank, selecting food that meets dietary restrictions and cooking abilities. They then hand-deliver the food to the recipients.
Angels on Wheels provide not only necessary nutritious food but also personal connections for our housebound and hungry neighbors.
To learn more aboutthe AOW program, email info@twinlakesfoodbank.org.
In order to broaden our services, Twin Lakes provides food support to local organization such as Powerhouse Ministries, Folsom’s Hope, Falcon Cares at Folsom Lake College, and more.
Supporting these organizations with the basic need of food allows them to focus on wrap-around services such as academic help, financial help, employment resources, mental and spiritual counseling, and more.

Our beloved garden is a center of not only nutritious produce but also sustainability and community.
By composting over 16,000 pounds of spoiled food, the garden sustainably uses food waste to fertilize crops and produce $15,000 of organic fruits and vegetables that food bank guests would otherwise be unable to afford.
