Take a Tour

Tour the food bank!​

We're so happy you're interested in touring the South Texas Food Bank!

 

We rely on community members like you to spread the word about our mission, services, and impact on the community. Learn how food moves through our facility to reach the thousands of families we serve across our South Texas service area on a monthly basis.

 

Our walking tour consists of a one-hour (average), informative, behind-the-scenes tour as we take you through our offices, kitchen, warehouse, and volunteer center. Meet some of the hard-working staff and volunteers that make our efforts possible!

Tours are available Monday - Friday (except for holidays) starting from 9 A.M. to 4 P.M. to anyone 18 and older or ages 12 to 17 with a chaperone. No exceptions. 

 

Please call our Volunteer Coordinator at (956) 726-3120 Ext. 102 if you are planning on a tour or field trip that involves students under 12 or more than 25 participants.

 

FOR SAFETY AND LIABILITY REASONS:

  • All participants are required to wear closed-toe, low-heel shoes and shirts with sleeves.

  • No outside food or beverages are permitted.

  • We require at least one adult per ten children.

  • Please let our Volunteer Coordinator know if special accommodations are needed.
