Emergency Food Network (EFN) is Pierce County, Washington’s nonprofit food distributor, with a mission to provide Pierce County with a consistent, diverse, and nutritious food supply so that no person goes hungry. EFN partners with a network of over 75 food pantries, meal sites, and shelters, supplying them with more than one million pounds of food every month, at no cost to them. This food comes from a variety of sources, including donations, government programs, produce grown at EFN’s Mother Earth Farm, and our Co-op Food Purchasing Program. Through our partners, we serve the entire Pierce County area, including dense urban cores and isolated rural communities alike. EFN believes that every person in Pierce County should have the food they need not just to survive, but to thrive.
