Feeding Illinois is proud to launch the Grain for Good pilot program! In collaboration with Grainland Farmers, local farmers, and agricultural partners, we’re tackling food insecurity in our communities.
We’re reaching out to grain farmers in Woodford, Logan, LaSalle, Marshall, and Tazewell counties to donate a portion of their harvest. Donated bushels will provide ground pork from local hog farmers and meat processors to food banks serving each area.
Back for its third season, Hunters Feeding Illinois connects hunters, meat processors, and food pantries to provide lean venison to families in need.
Great news—Feeding Illinois is matching donations dollar-for-dollar! A $50 donation becomes $100, covering the processing of one deer and doubling your impact.

Farm to Food Bank Program
The Farm to Food Bank Program aims to connect food banks directly with local farms so they can buy fresh products like fruits, vegetables, cheese, milk, meat, and eggs. This is a great chance to create a lasting partnership and improve the supply chain for Illinois farmers and food banks.
