Des Moines Area Food Bank announces 2025 free summer meal sites

by EditorJune 25, 2025June 25, 2025

The Des Moines Area Food Bank is once again offering free meals to children this summer as part of the federally funded Summer Food Service Program, with more than 20 open meal sites across South King County.

Children ages 1 to 18 are eligible to receive free breakfasts, lunches or snacks, depending on the site, with no registration required.

Locations include parks, schools, apartment complexes, and community centers in Des Moines, SeaTac, Burien and parts of unincorporated King County.

Meal service dates range from late June through the end of August, though each location has its own schedule.

All sites will be closed on July 4 in observance of Independence Day.

Meals are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and updates to service times or closures will be posted online at http://www.myfoodbank.org/meals-for-kids.html.
