Our Foundation

Nourishing our Mason County neighbors.

Founded in 2024, Feed Needs bridges the gap between agricultural surplus and local tables, ensuring Shelton families have dignified access to fresh, healthy food.

Our Mission

Nourishing Shelton with mutual respect.

Fresh, healthy food is the foundation for stronger communities. By partnering with local growers, we turn agricultural surplus into consistent, stigma-free nourishment.

Our Principles

Grounded in community stewardship.

We operate with absolute transparency and respect. Every volunteer shift, donation, and partnership is designed to uphold the dignity of our neighbors while building long-term food independence.

Through community-funded programs and local agricultural partnerships, we ensure that fresh-picked surplus reaches those who need it most, without barriers or stigma.
