Tucson food resources

Food Assistance

  • Tucson Community Food Bank: Provides food assistance, resources, and support to families in need. They feature gardening workshops, farmers' markets that accept SNAP benefits, free Tai Chi classes and more
  • The 3000 Club/Market on the Move: $10 for up to *60 pounds* of produce (so go with a friend and split the cost!), Saturdays at varying locations throughout Tucson
  • Food Pantries, Meal Sites, and Emergency Grocery Services in Pima County: Comprehensive up to date list of food assistance throughout Pima County with links, phone numbers, addresses and hours of operation

Programs for Kids (and adults!)

  • Tucson Village Farm: Programs for kids starting at age 2 and going through high school to foster healthy eating and living, leadership and community. Has mid-week farmers' markets, and hosts Market on the Move on second Saturday mornings
  • The Tucson Family Food Project: Provides the kids in the program with a meal kit that will feed at least four people, along with accompanying instructional YouTube videos and instructions to teach kids an absolutely essential life skill - how to feed yourself

Dr. Pettit's favorite online resources for recipes

  • The Kitchn: That's right, no E needed. Free recipes that are tested and delicious, with useful posts about other things (like sticking orange peels in your dishwasher to make it smell delicious). If you have a lemon tree or a friend who has one, check out the preserved lemons recipe to add brightness to any pasta dish, soup or stew, or salad.
  • Food52: Fancy name, simple recipes. Dr. Pettit loves the roasted potato and kale salad with tahini dressing. 
  • Budget Bytes: The name says it all. Recipes for those of us on a budget. Website has recipes broken down by categories that include vegetarian, vegan, one pot, and under $10 recipes among others. Check out the chickpea masala recipe (and add some cubed extra firm tofu, shrimp, chicken if you want more protein and are okay with going over the $5.98 Recipe / $1.49 Serving price tag)
  • Post Punk Kitchen: This is the vegan website that taught Dr. Pettit how to cook back in 2010. The butternut rancheros recipe is a keeper for a weeknight, and the cashew vegetable korma is perfect to feed a crowd.
