Summer Lunch Program

Do you need grocery help for your school age kids during summer? Summer Lunch is our annual program to help fill the gap when kids aren't receiving lunch at school. Families receive a variety of breakfast, lunch, and snack items, as well as a variety of produce and deli options, every other week.

Open to all families with children attending school in the Issaquah School District  or those who live in ZIP codes 98027, 98029, 98059, 98074, and 98075.  Registration is strongly encouraged, so we know how many families to expect, but not required.

During the summer we Eat the Rainbow! Each day is focused on a different color of fruits and vegetables and the benefits we get from foods that color. We encourage everyone to wear the color of that day. Anything counts!

Come back to this page at the end of May for 2026 Summer Lunch registration

Summer Lunch 2026 will be from 1pm - 5pm each day on the following dates:

June 25th - Red

July 9th - Orange

July 23rd - Yellow

August 6th - Green

August 20th - Blurple (Blue/Purple)

  • We will not have indoor shopping. Similar to our Thursdays of shopping weeks, we are running this program as our Express Shopping Model. 

  • We’re focusing on fresh and frozen foods. Dry goods will be limited, but still available during regular market visits every other week.

  • If you can't come between 1pm - 5pm, we are trying a new delivery option of only produce and non-perishables (no milk, eggs, or meat). See more details on the registration page.

Donor Information:

We helped more than 420 children each month throughout the summer of 2022 with a huge selection of kid-friendly breakfast, lunch and snack options, as well as thousands of pounds of fresh produce, dairy, and deli selections. 

Interested in helping bridge the hunger gap for children in our community?
Our biggest need is financial support to help us save costs by purchasing in bulk. Now more than ever before, families need a little extra support to ease the stress and additional financial burden associated with COVID-19. Help us end summer food insecurity by donating here.
