The ARC Food and Farm Fridays Distribution Site

The ARC Food and Farm Fridays, operated by the nonprofit Building Bridges Across the River, is a food pantry in Southeast Washington, DC that distributes fresh produce grown in urban gardens throughout the city, along with groceries and prepared meals from partners like the Capital Area Food Bank and DC Central Kitchen. Located at THEARC, a nonprofit facility on Mississippi Avenue Southeast, the program addresses food insecurity in a designated food desert area by providing residents with free locally grown vegetables, fruits, herbs, and other nutritious items.
