San Antonio Food Bank Restaurant Weeks Returns: A Farm-to-Table Experience

What sets this event apart is its direct connection to the San Antonio Food Bank’s on-site agricultural program. Located at its main campus, the Food Bank cultivates 25 acres of fresh, seasonal produce that is distributed to families in need across Southwest Texas. For a limited time, these same nutrient-rich ingredients will make their way into the kitchens of participating restaurants, creating a meaningful farm-to-table experience that gives back. To learn more about the Food Bank’s broader agricultural initiatives, visit HERE.

Each participating restaurant will feature a signature dish centered around an on-site harvest, bringing their own culinary perspective to the plate. Together, these offerings celebrate San Antonio’s dynamic dining scene while spotlighting the Food Bank’s innovative and sustainable approach to addressing food insecurity.

Proceeds from each featured dish will directly benefit the Food Bank's Summer Meals for Kids campaign, a critical program designed to bridge the 20 million meal gap children face during summer break, providing vital nutrition for youth who may otherwise go without. Each establishment has committed to raising at least $300 through the event, with every $1 raised equating to seven meals for local children.

Diners can support the cause by enjoying the signature dishes at participating restaurants, where $1 from each dish sold will be donated back to the Food Bank. Additionally, each restaurant features a unique QR code allowing guests to contribute toward that restaurant's fundraising goal, either in-store or online here.

Participating restaurants already signed up include Supper at Hotel Emma, Pharm Table, The Jerk Shack, Sari-Sari Filipino Restaurant & Market, Naco Mexican Eatery, and more. To view the full list of restaurants, visit the San Antonio Food Bank website here.
