Free Food Box Program

Kohala Food Hub, in partnership with Hawai'i Department of Education and Hawai'i Good Food Alliance, is serving a free food box program funded by the USDA starting the week of February 3rd.

We will be distributing free local food boxes at a value of $55 each filled with local produce and proteins to 177 families in North Kohala and Waimea, over 22 weeks. Each Box will contain 4-5lbs of local vegetables, 3-4lbs of local fruits, and 1-2lbs of local meat (local grass-fed beef).

Applicants will be prioritized for service based on:

  • Household income

  • Participation in Federal assistance programs

  • Number of keiki and kupuna living in the households

 

Households with 4+ members may be eligible to receive more than 1 box each week!

Boxes will be distributed on Thursday afternoons in Kapa‘au and Waimea. Please visit the link below to fill out the application

and get started!
